Cable systems located in one market that carry another market’s channels in HD

From the "Cable systems that cross market lines" thread:

Comcast Attica IN (Fountain County - Indianapolis DMA) crosses into Warren County (Champaign-Springfield DMA).

This system carries CW and FOX from Champaign-Springfield and WTTW (PBS) Chicago in HD alongside the Indy locals. CBS Lafayette is SD only despite this system being near Lafayette. Oddly, no TBN or ION Indy (too far north?).

CW Champaign-Springfield is kind of odd considering its stick is farther from Attica than the Big Four and PBS sticks from that market.
 
Mediacom Dwight/Pontiac, IL (Livingston County - Peoria-Bloomington DMA) carries PBS Chicago and Urbana in HD instead of the in-market PBS, which is not seen at all. SD adds FOX and NBC Chicago: http://www.mediacomtoday-lineup.com/lineup/368/cornell_cullom_dwight_livingston_county_saune.aspx

Comcast Rochelle, IL (Ogle County - Rockford DMA) carries ION, PBS, and Univision Chicago in HD alongside the Rockford Big 4 and CW (Rockford doesn't have ION, PBS, or Univision affiliates). Also a couple subchannels are seen of Chicago stations that aren't carried: http://tvschedule.zap2it.com/tvlist...1068&setMyPreference=false&lineupId=IL12406:X

Comcast Dixon, IL (Lee County - Rockford DMA) carries ABC, CBS, and NBC Quad Cities in HD alongside the Rockford affiliates. Also, with Rockford not having its own PBS member, PBS from Chicago and the Quad Cities are available in HD: http://tvschedule.zap2it.com/tvlist...1021&setMyPreference=false&lineupId=IL12470:X

Norvado in Hayward, WI (Sawyer County - Duluth DMA) carries the Big Four from both Duluth and Eau Claire-La Crosse plus PBS from Duluth and NBC from Minneapolis all in HD! In SD, PBS from Minneapolis and Eau Claire are also carried: http://www.zap2it.com/rmp/tvgrid/tvgridprint?lineupid=USA-WI61428-X&tz=US/Central&time=0

They've added PBS from Eau Claire (it says Madison but outside of Milwaukee the PBS is state run so its the same in Madison, Eau Claire, LaCrosse, Wausau) in HD too.
http://www.norvado.com/images/userguides/ResidentialChannelGuide.pdf

So they get in HD
Big 4 + PBS from Duluth
Big 4 + PBS from Eau Claire

But the CW, My and diginets are from Duluth in SD (there is no HD feed of My or CW in Duluth). PBS from Mpls also in SD. They dont get ANY of the subs from Eau Claire (which would be Decades, Movies!, H&I and the Wisco channel)

Suddenlink Clarksville/Lamar AR (Johnson County - Fort Smith-Fayetteville DMA) has mainly Fort Smith channels in HD, but carries KARK Little Rock for NBC HD instead of KNWA (both are owned by Nexstar). SD adds ABC and CBS from Little Rock.
https://docs.google.com/gview?url=h...ineup/fileDownLoad?fd_fileId=3136&chrome=true
Click to expand...

They have since replaced KARK with KNWA in HD and SD. Oddly, Zap2it says they added ABC Little Rock HD, while suddenlink.com says its SD only.

Lig TV Ligonier, IN (Noble County - Fort Wayne DMA) carries WSJV (FOX South Bend) in HD instead of in-market WFFT, which is not seen at all. The Big Three networks in HD are all from Fort Wayne. No PBS affiliate is carried in HD. SD adds WINM (TCT) from Fort Wayne and WHME (religious independent), WNDU (NBC), and WNIT (PBS) from South Bend: http://www.zap2it.com/rmp/tvgrid/tvgridprint?lineupid=USA-IN65876-X&tz=US/Eastern&time=0
Click to expand...

LigTV has dropped WSJV and added WFFT HD. It also added two PBS stations in HD, from Fort Wayne and South Bend. The two religious stations are also in HD.
