This is what most TV tuners do.
* Scan all common frequencies in a range.
* If it hits a live frequency and it has a Network Information Table (NIT), it will either, continue to scan the range - adding the frequencies to a list to be scanned afterwards, or stop the ranged scan & just scan the NIT. The first is very slow, the second is much faster.
Tvheadend usually only needs one live "seed" frequency with a NIT, it will take the frequencies in the NIT and scan those, rather than a range scan, which it can't do.
