Buy an LG TV set.

LG sets, unlike all other brands except maybe Sony to some degree, allow you to "blindly" enter channel numbers without doing a "channel scan" first. They also allow you to manually put channel numbers into your saved list, so you can be ready if signals appear later. They also likely have among the best-performing tuners, since LG and its predecessor Zenith have done most of the ongoing development of ATSC tuner technology.

You may want to download owner's manuals for various TV sets to look at the menu functions if they are shown.

Update: After posting this, I noticed that the site itself automatically converted the terms "LG" and "Sony" into links to things for sale on Amazon. I did not do that, and I have no business interest in LG or any other equipment.
