If you want to continue to use the JDM radio you need to use a block downconverter to convert the aerial signal into a frequency that the radio band can work from.

It's a bit of a cheat, as the radio will still display the lower frequency numbers, but the channels it will play will be coming in on the higher US frequencies.

You can look up [and purchase] the device here:

However, if you plan to get rid of the JDM radio it is certainly a better solution to get the proper new tuner that can receive all your standard Canadian frequencies.

The Band Expander works for sure, it's just not a great solution to the problem.
