Force the broadcasters to share one transmitter. Basically have all them put
their feeds on one transmitter as sub channels. That will only work if you
have several stations serving the same area, so they can double up on one
transmitter. They will have to decide who is going to take over broadcasting
for the entire group.

That'll be great. One storm or terrorist attack can wipe out a city's
entire OTA TV channels.
