I don't think there is an official recomendation but:-
I use a TBS 6285 PCIe Card (4 Tuners) on my Win 10 HTPC and an external USB TBS 5881 (1 Tuner) on my Win 10 Desktop for OTA German Full HD TV, both work well. TBS have a comprehensive range of tuners for the various means of receiving TV but please check restrictions in MP if you want to view encypted broadcasts.

MP2 uses the same TV engine as MP1, so it must work also with MP2, you just need to select TVE3 and not TVE3.5 in the installer. MP2 also supports a 3rd TV engine TVMosaic, but this is configured web-based and I can not tell you, if this works with your hardware.

I've setup my HDHomeRun in MP1 as (4) IPTV cards rather than Atsc. I can see the (4) Atsc cards, but just have them disabled. I did it this way so I didn't have to edit the channel names every time tested a new TV-server install. Anyway, it works. I don't know if this would get you past the BDA driver issue.
