I dont understand how come they just make the tuners pick up the signal like the old sets did without the scanning.

The older version(s) of the 3.5" set(s) mentioned above indeed had a menu item that allowed a single channel to be entered directly (Quick search). I suspect that this feature was confusing to many of the general public that have no knowledge of the "real RF channel" that is being used and only know the station by the "virtual channel" number. Many tvs/convertor boxes still offer some form of "direct entry", but it is likely that few, other than DXers would care.
