I am getting back into planes and it has been a very long time. I was going through all my old stuff and came across a Futaba Radio. It is a model FP-T7UAP 7-Channel PCM1024 on channel 22. Will this radio work? If so I was not able to find a receiver. Will any old receiver do? Thanks for your help!

ps. Here is an EBAY auction of the exact same radio:

Ahhh... The Super Seven. It served me well for years. It is still a legal radio. Any low band Futaba PCM or FM receiver will work with it. Replace the battery pack and you should be good to go. [8D]

Before you go bidding on this, check out this link. By the time you replace the battery, you can have cutting edge technology. Don't get me wrong, I have a 7UAF and love it. But it is about 20 years old and you have 1 frequency. This is the new spread spectrum stuff.

Sorry I misread your post. I thought you were going to bid on that item. Any Futaba compatible receiver should be fine with that radio. You should be able to find an FM receiver for about $30 ob eBay if you're looking. That battery will set you back a little but check with Batteries America/E.H.Yost, they should have a direct replacement at a good price. I see these guys at the WRAM show in White Plains, NY which, by the way, is coming up soon, weekend of Feb 22 - 24.

To clarify I already HAVE the transmitter. Just need to buy a battery and receiver and go.
