“Fix broadcast after replay is delayed? (6)”
This clue's indicators are 'after' and 'is delayed?'. One is a repositioning indicator, showing us the order in which to arrange our fodder. The other is a deletion indicator, suggesting that some fodder needs to be deleted from other fodder. The question mark suggests that some lateral thinking is required here.
This clue's fodder is 'broadcast' and 'replay'. We'll need to find a common substitution for one of these, along with the letters of the other, to construct our answer as guided by the clue's indicator(s).
Our definition here is 'Fix', and our answer will be another word for that.
