What kind of a tuner are you looking at ? Or better, which tuner is it ?

I have a tuner over here, which supports multiple bands. What i do is
like this for ex (in my tuning function):
/* RF tuning function */
if (rf_lof < 40000000)
return -1;
reg1 = mxl500x_cwread_change(state, MXL500x_DC1);
reg2 = mxl500x_cwread_change(state, MXL500x_DC2);
reg3 = mxl500x_cwread_change(state, MXL500x_DC3);
reg4 = mxl500x_cwread_change(state, MXL500x_DC4);
if ((rf_lof >= 40000000) && (rf_lof <= 75000000)) {
MXL500x_SETFIELD(DC1_DN_POLY, reg1, 2);
MXL500x_SETFIELD(DC1_DN_CAP_RFLPF_1, reg1,
(MXL500x_LSB(DC1_DN_CAP_RFLPF_1, 423)));
MXL500x_SETFIELD(DC2_DN_CAP_RFLPF_0, reg2,
(MXL500x_MSB(DC2_DN_CAP_RFLPF_0, 423)));
MXL500x_SETFIELD(DC3_DN_RFGAIN, reg3, 3);
MXL500x_SETFIELD(DC3_DN_EN_VHFUHFBAR, reg3, 1);
MXL500x_SETFIELD(DC4_DN_GAIN_ADJUST, reg4, 1);
}
if ((rf_lof > 75000000) && (rf_lof <= 100000000)) {
MXL500x_SETFIELD(DC1_DN_POLY, reg1, 3);
MXL500x_SETFIELD(DC1_DN_CAP_RFLPF_1, reg1,
(MXL500x_LSB(DC1_DN_CAP_RFLPF_1, 222)));
MXL500x_SETFIELD(DC2_DN_CAP_RFLPF_0, reg2,
(MXL500x_MSB(DC2_DN_CAP_RFLPF_0, 222)));
MXL500x_SETFIELD(DC3_DN_RFGAIN, reg3, 3);
MXL500x_SETFIELD(DC3_DN_EN_VHFUHFBAR, reg3, 1);
MXL500x_SETFIELD(DC4_DN_GAIN_ADJUST, reg4, 1);
}
if ((rf_lof > 100000000) && (rf_lof <= 150000000)) {
MXL500x_SETFIELD(DC1_DN_POLY, reg1, 3);
MXL500x_SETFIELD(DC1_DN_CAP_RFLPF_1, reg1,
(MXL500x_LSB(DC1_DN_CAP_RFLPF_1, 147)));
MXL500x_SETFIELD(DC2_DN_CAP_RFLPF_0, reg2,
(MXL500x_MSB(DC2_DN_CAP_RFLPF_0, 147)));
MXL500x_SETFIELD(DC3_DN_RFGAIN, reg3, 3);
MXL500x_SETFIELD(DC3_DN_EN_VHFUHFBAR, reg3, 1);
MXL500x_SETFIELD(DC4_DN_GAIN_ADJUST, reg4, 2);
}
....... .....
if ((rf_lof > 680000000) && (rf_lof <= 900000000)) {
MXL500x_SETFIELD(RFSYN6_RFSYN_EN_OUTMUX, reg6, 0);
MXL500x_SETFIELD(RFSYN6_RFSYN_SEL_VCO_OUT, reg6, 1);

MXL500x_SETFIELD(DC2_DN_SEL_FREQ, reg2, 0);
f_min = 680000000, f_max = 900000000;
div = 4;
}
mxl500x_cwrite_change(state, MXL500x_RFSYN6, reg6);
mxl500x_cwrite_change(state, MXL500x_RFSYN5, reg5);
mxl500x_cwrite_change(state, MXL500x_DC2, reg2);
/* equation 3 */
reg5 = mxl500x_cwread_change(state, MXL500x_RFSYN5);
eq3 = (((f_max - rf_lof) / 1000) * 32) / ((f_max - f_min) / 1000) + 8;
MXL500x_SETFIELD(RFSYN5_RFSYN_VCO_BIAS, reg5, eq3);
mxl500x_cwrite_change(state, MXL500x_RFSYN5, reg5);
