Hello
You have to identify situation where it does not work, optimally single 
known channel. Then switch to working driver and tune that same channel 
and take sniffs. Then generate code from sniffs, copy paste that to 
non-working driver until it starts working. Then it is quite trivial to 
find out by error and trial tests & binary search where the problematic 
register is.

Here is some tips.

Hacking script I used is attached, just for the example.

regards
Antti
