Technically parabolic dishes like satellite dishes can be use as radio telescope but as the gain of signal is very weak on radio astronomy relative to satellite signal then you need to have bigger surface area or bigger dish.
The minimum suggested size for use as radio telescope is 3 meter like RTP30 radio telescope from POAM Electronics company. ( for more information look at poam electronics website).
Optical telescopes use either lens' (refractory) or mirrors (reflective) to magnify light. Radio telescopes use dishes to pick up radio waves. sensors on the dishes collect the waves and turn them into a picture
they use radio waves to pick up some what satellite images or existance of things in space
they do not need visivle light to obtain images
yes,they do use radio waves
you use the dial
Radio telescopes use parabolic dishes to collect and focus radio waves from space. The dish reflects the radio waves to a receiver, which then converts the waves into electronic signals that can be processed and analyzed.

Researchers use all of these: -- optical telescopes -- radio telescopes -- x-ray telescopes -- infra-red telescopes -- ultraviolet telescopes
Optical and Radio telescopes.
No, radio telescopes and refracting telescopes have different designs and functions. Radio telescopes are designed to detect radio waves from space, whereas refracting telescopes use lenses to bend light to create images of distant objects. While both types of telescopes have a common goal of observing the universe, their designs are optimized for different wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation.
As far as I know, there is no "optical radio telescope". There are, separately, optical telescopes (which work with visible light), and radio telescopes (which work with radio waves).

Scientists use radio telescopes to detect and study radio waves traveling through space. These telescopes can collect and analyze radio signals from various celestial objects like stars, galaxies, and pulsars. By studying these radio waves, scientists can gain insights into the properties and behavior of objects in the universe.
Both types of telescope collect and focus electromagnetic radiation for observational purposes, the difference is their band of observed frequencies. Radio telescopes are used for the radio frequencies ( ~3km - ~30cm) while optical telescopes are used for frequencies closer to visible light ( ~0.7μm - ~0.4μm). Optical telescopes may also be able to detect infrared and ultraviolet light.
The radio frequency portion of the electromagnetic spectrum uses radio telescopes.
Radiation other than light and radio waves hardly penetrates Earth's atmosphere.
