There certainly ARE differences between various digital TVs when it comes to over-the-air reception and they do NOT all use the same chip sets in the tuners. The problem is - there's no way to know except by word-of-mouth. Not much to tell when you look in a store.
I have over-the-air antenna systems in four places. Two in central NY and two in northern MI. I've got a dozen digital TVs. One thing I've found is that even with one brand, various models and sizes will act differently. So the brand name means little.
One thing you CAN tell before you buy. The digital tuner does a search for signals and locks in local channels the first time you use it. Find out if it allows a second or third search and channel lock-in without deleting the first set of channels it found. That is a BIG plus if you have an antenna rotator or multiple antennas.
By the way - I just bought a new 50" Emerson TV from Walmart for $218. It has one of the best tuners I've had so far. Emerson brand and manufactured by Funai.
