Looking for an older TV that will get channels 3, 5, 8

I am looking for an older model TV that has a knob on the front that clicks, 12 positions, and will receive only channels 3, 5 and 8 from Cleveland, Ohio on an antenna. (I live in a small town 30+ miles from the city, and even further from its television towers.) I don't much care for DTV and its reception problems anymore, and frankly, I miss the old days when TVs had one large knob on the front (or the side) of the cabinet to change channels. As I do not care for most of the cable channels, a set with a standard tuner that only gets the three major networks and PBS would suit me just fine. My Roku streaming video player would probably get the retro TV channels (in my area, 5.2, 8.2, 19.2) and the PBS channel, so it wouldn't matter to me if the set had UHF or not.

Thanks.
