  Perhaps a scintillation correction process of more sophistication than 
simple amplitude correction can be used.

A number of years ago I participated in a series of tests and 
measurements of a particularly badly multipathed broadcast FM station 
(WAEB, Allentown).  One of the observations was that the 19kHz pilot 
tone exhibited sidebands that were the result of multipath, and told 
much about it.  Although the method was never implemented in hardware 
due to the lack of affordable fast processing, math in a computer 
simulation used an FFT of the pilot - and its inverse on the baseband - 
to correct the signal, largely removing the destructive result.

For processing of voice and low-rate bandwidths, such a process could be 
implemented today comparatively easily, I think.  I need no new projects 
at the moment, but I believe I'll add this to the list.
