Default Older Futaba FM 72Mhz radio

I have an older Futaba 6 channel FM radio with 72Mhz (plane/helicopter) frequency crystals in it. Can I just buy a set of 75Mhz crystals in whatever channel I want for surface and it will be ok and work correctly ? The receiver is dual conversion, so I would buy the appropriate dc crystals for both the tx and rx.

I know.....get rid of the old FM stuff and go with 2.4GHz....... I would do that, but have a perfectly functioning FM system I would like to use for my next build.

Does it even matter anymore if I were to leave it 72Mhz....and just not go close to any model airplane fields.... lol..
