Well, first, is that a 72 MHz system? If so, what channel is it? The receiver frequency (channel) must match the transmitter.

Second, if 72 Mhz, it doesn't have a crystal that came with it?

Get a futaba channel 53 receiver crystal.

I don't think that receiver is PCM either so you should be alright

Ok. Channel 53. That's 72.85 MHz. That's a start.

Is it a Futaba? Airtronics? JR? Who makes the radio receiver? You cannot mix-and-match receiver crystals. We really have to have all the specifics about this.

John has it right, you need a Futaba Dual Conversion FM on Ch 52

(DF= D dual conversion, F FM)

BTW, PCM is FM, there's no difference.
