We've investigated a bit more, and all current units seem to be
suffering from the same problem - including high end in-dash AV screen
units. Some older units seem to be OK though, so I'd suspect Simon's
guess is probably along the right lines - that it's the underscore
that's causing the problem. Presumably, as time's passed, the people
implementing RDS have assumed it'll only use a limited alphanumric
character set.

Works fine on my unlabelled "original equipment" Blaupunkt head unit
(which I think is very close to but not exactly the same as the Alicante
CD33) and my JVC home hifi.

I passed the comment about the underscores on to someone at Q103 today
but it might take a while to get to the right person.

Cheers,

Mark.
