Cable systems that cross market lines

CenturyLink Randolph, WI (literally on the Columbia/Dodge county line) carries only Madison stations, despite most of the town being on the Dodge County side. Dodge County is Milwaukee DMA, while Columbia County is Madison DMA: http://tvschedule.zap2it.com/tvlist...3956&setMyPreference=false&lineupId=WI66591:X

Most of the towns served by this system are in Columbia County, and thus in the Madison DMA. From the FCC's Cable Search:
