Which TV Market Has The Most Consecutive DTV Channels?

I'm referring to main channels. Unlike analog TV, digital TV stations can be consecutive.

For instance in Chicago we have

WCPX - 43 (38)
WLS - 44(7)
WSNS - 45 (44)


Call - DTV Channel (Virtual Channel)

So that's three in a row, in Chicago

Trip probably knows the answer to this, but I was wondering which marekt has the most consecutive DTV stations.
 
Sort of for Hartford/New Haven: WEDN-DT (PBS) of Norwich is on channel 9 [old 53], while WTNH-DT (ABC) of New Haven is on channel 10 [old 8]. WEDH-DT (PBS) of Hartford is on channel 45 [old 24] while WUVN-DT (UNI) is on channel 46 [old 18].
 
Los Angeles has 31/32/33/34/35/36. All are full-service. KTLA/KDOC/KTBN/KMEX/KRCA/KNBC. That doesn't count low-power stations in the market.

I can't think of one with more than that, but I could be wrong.

Dallas-Fort Worth can tie that if you include low power stations:

38 KVFW-LD
39 KLDT
40 KXTX
41 KXAS
42 KPXD
43 KDTN

When KLEG/44 changes from analog to digital, here's how the lineup will look:

38 KVFW-LD
39 KLDT
40 KXTX
41 KXAS
42 KPXD
43 KDTN
44 KLEG-LD
45 KDTX
46 KTAQ
 
If you're going to count LPTV stations, I think Los Angeles still wins.

38 KPXN
39 KVEA
40 KVHD-LD
41 KLCS
42 KWHY
43 KCAL
44 KHIZ (Application for DTS pending)
45 KSKJ-CD/KLAU-LD (Latter is silent)
46 KTAV-LD
47 KAZA
48 KOCE
49 KJLA
50 KNLA-LD
51 KXLA
