Does anybody have a map, list, or file which shows what US counties get TV broadcast stations from multiple DMAs?
I know there are many which show the official DMA markets by county, but none that I have seen display overlays.
For example, Fairfield County, CT gets both NYC and Hartford broadcast stations.
Thanks.

My county (Warren county Ohio) primarily gets broadcasts from Dayton but some out of Cincinnati.

Everyone has cable or satellite now but the new digital signal strength is not anywhere close to what the old analog signals were.

Where I am located I could probably get the Dayton stations with a indoor antenna but would need an outdoor for Cincinnati stations.

It used to be the Dayton stations reached Cincinnati and the Cincinnati stations reached Dayton, the FM radio still does.

Berkshire County MA used to get the Hartford/Springfield stations and Albany. But now its just Albany which sucks because its more intertwined with Hartford and Springfield than like Troy

FCC has maps, like this one: https://www.fcc.gov/media/engineering/dtvmaps

Lots of sites show this information, just not in the form you've asked for. search for over the air broadcast antenna coverage maps

I don’t know, as Albany area TV has long had a presence in that area of MA. In fact, WTEN, the ABC affiliate in Albany also used to include North Adams MA. So, there is a connection to the Albany area for people in Berkshire County.

DC used to get both Washington and Baltimore stations when I lived there. I haven't lived down there in forever but I know their regional sports network (MASN) covers both the O's and the Nats and some of those local network channels like FOX in both cities used to be shown in DC.

When I lived in Delaware (New Castle County), we used to get both Philadelphia and Baltimore channels. It looks like they also get channels from Lancaster/York.

Neither of those are what I want to see, I mean the first link is missing some station I know they get in Fairfield County, really I just want to know where, county wise, one is allowed to get broadcast channels (NBC, FOX, CBS, ABC) from multiple DMAs.
