It must have a Channel 54 Crystal: The receiver needs a matching physical crystal chip plugged into it labeled Ch. 54 or 72.870 MHz. It must be used for Aircraft Only: Because of your radio's specific frequency band, it is legally restricted by the FCC for model airplanes or gliders only. You cannot legally install the receiver inside a boat or car.
