Colin,
Most any rack will work, and the best local source will probably be
someone who is upgrading an IT department, as they often replace racks
and all.
Let me suggest that you make life easier (and safer!) by adding supports
along each side of the rack to support the weight of your receiver.
Modern rack rails are often "L-shaped" making this easy to do using
angle stock from the hardware store. This makes it infinitely easier
to mount and remove the radio from the rack, and eliminates any stress
from the front panel and chassis.
