Default Wide band radio help

Someone gave me an old (80's?) futaba goldcase wideband am radio system which is in excellent shape and I would like to use it. My problem is that our club is all narrowband. Radiosouth says they could narrowband the transmitter for $15 but then I would have to buy a narrowband am reciever making the old one obsolete. For this price I could almost by a new system which I dont really need. Anyone have any suggestions? Anyone have an am futaba narrowband reciever kicking around?

Default am receiver

Tower is selling the Futaba 4 channel Rx for $32 plus $9 for the crystal.

FMA has a seven channel AM RX but it is about $80
