Apple iPod FM radio

The FM broadcast in the United States starts at 88.0 MHz and ends at 108.0 MHz. The band is divided into 100 channels, each 200 kHz (0.2 MHz) wide. The center frequency is located at 1/2 the bandwidth of the FM Channel, or 100 kHz (0.1 MHz) up from the lower end of the channel. For example, the center frequency for Channel 201 (the first FM channel) is 88.0 MHz + 0.1 MHz = 88.1 MHz. Every FM center frequency ends with a decimal extension of .1, .3, .5, .7, or .9. AM and FM station assignments in other countries may not be made according to these procedures. In some countries, an FM station may be assigned a frequency with an even decimal such as 106.2 MHz. Hope this helps.

I should have noticed where you were writing from and realized it was the European market. And I can't take credit for the explanation. I copied it from the Federal Communications Commission webpage. I would think that an iPod accessory radio tuner destined for the UK, like other digitally tuned radios, would allow the even decimal frequency. Unless it wasn't purchased there.
