One thing to check first, is that The FM band in the US works on odd digits (f.ex Radio Hot 100 on 100.5) and the FM band in Europe works on even digits (f.ex Radio Hot 100 on 100.6). Does your new tuner let you work evens when tuning manually?

I do not know if US and EC Comand units have a different option code in the master list - there are only two listed, 512 and 527 and enter or not teby are electronically different I don’t know.
