So we have put up with the lack of a QAM compatible tuner for 3 years. Finally gave up. As others have said, more and more parks are going to the digital signals that cannot be seen by the Seiki TVs. We upgraded to a 43" Hi-Sense Roku SMART TV in our living room and a TCL 28" Roku SMART TV in our bedroom. Both of these have a nice picture and better yet were very reasonable. The Hi-Sense was $198. The TCL was $125. I did a great deal of homework to make sure that both were "clear QAM" compatible and that both would work with a single Dish Wally receiver. Wanted to eliminate the need for separate remotes to handle volume and channel changes for Dish.
A further note - I looked at LGs. It seems they have their own built in goofiness. A single HDMI input and no headphone out or digital audio output. Huh?
