Kevin,

Look under the The ground vehicles in the marketplace. Car systems or boat systems will be on 75mhz. Here is a link to a nice multiplex unit that has already been converted. http://www.rcuniverse.com/market/item.cfm?itemId=172091

Also, if you go with a Hitec radio and it takes a plug in module, (Eclipse radio) Mike at Hitec told me it is as simple as buying a 75mhz (ground freq) module and plugging it in the back of the radio without having to send it in to be tuned/ converted etc.

Yes it is.  Ad says it's on channel 26.

Contact Airtronics at;

and see if they will do the conversion on a Vanguard FM 7 channel system.
