AM radio operates at 500-1500kHz, which translates to 600-200 m wavelengths.

TV uses several non-contiguous frequency bands starting at 54 MHz which translates to wavelengths of 5.556 m and below.

Clearly AM radio has much longer wavelengths.

Are radar waves visible?

No. Radar waves are one category of radio waves. Think of all the radio waves that are all around you right now . . . AM radio, FM radio, police and fire radio, highway patrol radio, taxi radio, television picture and sound radio waves, cellphone radio waves, garage-door-opener radio waves, bluetooth radio waves, WiFi waves, microwaves ... and you can't see any of them ! Radar waves can easily be there in the group.
