Have you tried tuning to channel 9? Since WISH-TV is really broadcasting on RF channel 9, the TV might detect the signal and decode it, subsequently re-mapping it to channel 8.1 due to the virtual channel encoding.
There's nothing physically on channel 8, so I'm not surprised that tuning to channel 8 (or 8.0 on some TVs) yields nothing. However, in most of the TVs I've come across, if you tune to a channel where there is a real signal present (like 9 in this case), it does lock on to the signal, decode it, and add it to the channel map.
This might not work on all TVs, but it's worth a shot.
