It has been suggested elsewhere that up to five unlicensed AM transmitters with 100 mW input power each can operate physically close to each other without mutual interference as long as their r-f frequencies are the same, and their program audio is the same and is timed (delayed) properly.
The following link leads to a NEC analysis of this for just three such transmitter systems each using 1700 kHz, spaced at 200 foot intervals in a straight line.
The net radiation pattern from such an array can be highly directional, which may be different than expected and/or desired.
Changing the spacing and orientation of the radiators and/or the power and r-f phase in each of them can change the net radiation pattern shape, but the pattern will still be directional in some form.
