Yes you can; I once picked up a police radio with a cheap little toy walkie talkie. But there is no way to tune it, you just have to wait till it picks up a signal, which is very rare.
You might be picking up radio waves from another source, possibly a neighbor or a different radio. Some powerful radios or walkie-talkies can interfere with speaker systems.
They're found everywhere. When you consider that radio waves are sent out by every radio or TV station, every police or fire walkie-talkie, taxicab dispatcher, Bluetooth device, cordless telephone, garage door opener, cellphone, and smartphone in the world, you start to realize that no matter where you are, the room you're sitting in right now is bathed in the radio waves from a million sources or more.
A means of transmitting and receiving radio waves is a radio communication system, which typically includes a transmitter that converts information into radio waves and sends them out, and a receiver that captures those waves and decodes the information. This process allows for various applications, such as broadcasting audio, sending data, or enabling two-way communication. Common examples of such systems include AM/FM radios, walkie-talkies, and mobile phones.
no, mechanical waves are not radio waves
Radio waves ARE electromagnetic waves.
it uses radio waves
Yes. A good rule of thumb is that if the device has an antenna, it uses radio waves. An antenna would not be needed if it didn't use radio waves.
The components in an device such as a Walkie-Talkie reach each other through radio waves.
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.
Military code are really hard to come by they are kept tight so you are probably hering something else. You could be hearing cops. How this happens is the nature of radio, and part of the reason you're not likely hearing military transmissions. Radio waves are openly receivable, and a toy walkie talkie is not going to come installed with tightly tune crystals. This being the case, they will pick up strong nearby transmissions and skip.
Some examples of devices that use radio waves for communication include smartphones, radios, televisions, Wi-Fi routers, and walkie-talkies.

when they land , so they can communicate with each other. --- The term "Walkie Talkie" is a colloquialism which refers to a hand portable transceiver. Since every spacesuit is fitted with a hands-free transceiver then it is fair to say that they are always using one when suited up.

They communicate by sending off mind waves sorta like talking on a cell phone or walkie talkie.
They used their spacesuits to leave the Lunar Module and walk on its surface. The Apollo 15, 16 & 17 crews used a Lunar Roving Vehicle (Rover) to drive on the moon. They deployed mirrors on the surface of the moon so scientists could shoot a laser from the earth and measure the exact distance between the earth and the moon. They left probes to take temperature below the surface. They used Hasselblad cameras to take photos. They used numbered plastic bags to document samples. They used hammer to chip off pieces of large rocks for bringing back samples to earth. They used a raking device to collect small pebbles in the lunar soil. They also used TV cameras so show the people on earth what they were doing.
