Yeah, that's why they call them "billboards" ;-)
It's just a reasonably flat conductive (metal) surface that's oriented in such a way as to catch a signal from one microwave tower and reflect a useful percentage of that signal to another microwave tower somewhere else.
Joerg has some very nice photos of a billboard and the sort of microwave towers that use them on the 'Mount Irish Radio Facility' page.
