I have experienced this with tuners that don't allow me to explicitly
add channels. It can take a few tries but once the channel is found
it will remember it and (sometimes) receive it. This can be a big
problem if a station depends much on antenna direction and you have
multiple directions to try to add to the list.
My Vizio at least allows me to rescan only a limited range of channels
to get around this.
