We were flying into a Class B airport recently. The communications between approach, tower, and aircraft were moderately busy. We were assigned an airspeed on final about 4 miles out and to contact tower. I admit we got distracted by the sun in the eyes, and duty related items. I plugged the new frequency in and forgot to hit the switch. As we touched down, I immediately noticed the problem and called the tower saying we were on runway ##. The tower seemed unphased and told us to take the first turnoff and asked where we were parking. We told them, and were instructed to taxi in with him, and the controller sounded normal. I filled out a NASA form to be safe. My question to the controllers, or other pilots, if we did indeed land at a Class B airport and something was going to come out of it we both were thinking we would have gotten an earful or instructions to call the tower. I would appreciate any thoughts. First time like this ever happening in my aviation career :/
