DMA stands for Designated Market Area, which is actually your physical broadcast territory, normally designated by a group of counties where your Over the Air broadcast signal is supposed to cover. Each
OTA broadcaster has an assigned DMA that is your exclusive coverage area that is protected by the
FCC in regards to other broadcasters, as well as Direc TV and Dish Network in regards to allowed viewers territory also.
