Restrict Tuner to 88 - 108?

(1/3) > >>

Shindig:
Since the only thing I can pick up from 76 - 88 is either TV channel 5 audio or channel 6 audio, (There's no channel 6 in my area anyway) and I don't see myself travelling to Japan anytime soon, what would I need to modify to restrict the extended rockbox tuner to 88 - 108 MHz instead of the 76-108 range?

lenny:
probably modify the source code and recompile

Llorean:
Another, possibly more useful method, is to just look up the frequencies of the stations in your area, create a .fmr preset file, and not have to worry about any of the in-between frequencies ever again as well.

Shindig:
Lenny, thank you. The problem is, I have no idea where to get a compiler or what code to modify. I wonder if someone on here wouldn't mind taking a look at it when they get a chance and modifying it. If it's a matter of changing "76" to "88" in a file somewhere I could probably do it.

Llorean, It's an awesome feature and I've done that for my area. But it's always nice to be able to scan the FM dial when traveling out of the area. Having to scan 76-88 seems like an unnecessary waste of time to me. I can understand the benefits this has for other people.

Llorean:
You'll probably need to change 76 to 88 and then recompile, but yeah, it *should* be a very simple change compared to most things.
