Must walkie talkies have visible antennas?

HiNo, walkie-talkies do not need to have visible antennas, although it depends of the operation power in the unit.Some of the low power two way radios (license free) have got hidden antenna (Motorola TLKR T5).In high power radios (commercial - licensed units) signal transmitted from the antenna could interfere with the components inside, if fixed too close to the circuit board, inside the chassis.Antenna exposed outside the radio can easily radiate omni-directional, giving same coverage in all directions. Longer antenna very often gives better communicating range.

How do walkie talkies work?

Each walkie talkie is a radio transceiver (combined transmitter and receiver). Typically there is a rotary switch to select frequency channel for the transceiver and a button that when pressed switches the transceiver into transmit mode (normally it is in receive mode). Set two or more walkie talkies to the same channel and their users can communicate, if they are in range. The details of how radio transceivers work should be found in books on radio design and/or repair as this requires diagrams, figures, etc. that can't be posted here to fully understand.
