Welcome to the States
You definitely can't use 36Mhz over on this side of the pond. You could get a 72 Mhz module and 72 Mhz receiver, but since you're basically starting fresh with no receivers why not go 2.4Ghz?
Here's a link to a 2.4Ghz module that's very reasonably priced, and the receivers are also very reasonably priced.

All modern servos will work just fine with any of the current 2.4Ghz receivers, though some brands of receiver don't have the little slot for the tab on the Futaba "J" connectors, but the tab, or fin can easily be trimmed off if necessary.
Best of luck!!
