Double Din 87.7

I'm getting ready to change out my factory headunit (typical problems) and want to put in a double din stereo but I have a question. I live in Cleveland, OH, and our new radio station here is 87.7 FM. It seems that most after market stereos only go to 87.9. Any thoughts on what double din may go that low? I asked people at crutchfield, and they had no idea. Thanks in advance!

After a bit of research, I've found that Pioneer and Kenwood do NOT go 87.7, but it looks like Alpine and Jensen go to 87.5. Just in case anyone was wondering...

Yeah the FCC's range for FM broadcast in the US only goes to 87.8 (a .2mhz spread centered on 87.9), so you need a company that doesn't localize their units as much as Pioneer and Kenwood do. So that station's kinda in a gray zone as far as operating frequencies.
