Depends on the location. The company I work for produces a mountain-top repeater[0] series. Hundreds of them are distributed throughout the Rocky Mountains in British Columbia, providing an expansive coverage for handheld devices.
If you're curious about what an installation site looks like atop a mountain, check out pages 38-39 in an older product guide[1].
