I'm afraid I don't quite understand what you mean by mentioning
the "band switch bytes". Are you saying that in the code sequence

         if (params->frequency >= 48000000 && params->frequency <= 154000000) bs = 0x09;
         if (params->frequency >= 161000000 && params->frequency <= 439000000) bs = 0x0a;
         if (params->frequency >= 447000000 && params->frequency <= 863000000) bs = 0x08;

         pllbuf[0] = 0x61;
         pllbuf[1] = div >> 8;
         pllbuf[2] = div & 0xff;
         pllbuf[3] = 0xcc;
         pllbuf[4] = bs;

in flexcop-fe-tuner.c I should do

         bs |= 0x04;

to set bit 3?
