Not sure where you'd get one of those mate.. Try giving prestige a call and they may be able to get something, otherwise may be able to point you in the right direction..
Otherwise I'd be trying ebay.

Good luck

Overall though it is a really good...

Just do a search around those frequencies I rekon, should come up with some activity... be warned it's not the most exc...
