Stations with 2 of the same letter in their I.D. (WTTW, WAGA)

Just watched a PBS show from WTTW in Chicago. How many TV stations have 2 or more of the same letter in their I.D.? Probably not as many as you think. Most are probably repeating the “W” or "K".

WTTW has 2 letters twice.
WAGA 5 FOX Atlanta
WNYW 5 FOX NYC
WJXX 25 ABC Jacksonville, FL
WAWS 30 FOX Jacksonville, FL
WCWJ 17 CW Jacksonville, FL
