I think this problem is solved. I personally favor Ali's solution for my application. It's simpler. I don't want to make a custom scale for my thermocouple. I'd rather use NI's table which is already there. Still haven't had a chance to try out either one, but I think they both will work.
The option I mentioned in my first post, having a pre-made virtual channel for the one thermocouple I needed to isolate, did work. It turns out that you have to actually create the task and add the virtual channel to it before you can use the ScaleType property. I'd rather not have to do that, though.

Just tried Ali's solution and it worked great. Thanks to everyone for their help!
For future reference, I'm including a snippet. This for loop accepts an array of physical channel/enumerated sensor name pairs and creates the channels based on their sensor name. The relevant case is shown.
