No, radio signals travel at the speed of light in a vacuum, which is about 186,282 miles per second (299,792 kilometers per second). This is the ultimate speed limit in the universe according to the theory of relativity.
Radio signals travel at (essentially) the speed of light, as they are electromagnetic waves like light. Sound waves travel at roughly 1200 km/h. Now you have enough information to answer your own question.
Radio signals travel at the speed of light, which is the fastest speed possible for electromagnetic waves. This means that radio signals travel at the same speed as other forms of electromagnetic waves, such as visible light and X-rays.
In a vacuum, all types of light, such as visible light, radio waves, and X-rays, travel at the same speed, which is the speed of light, approximately 299,792 kilometers per second. This is a fundamental property of light in a vacuum known as the speed of light constant.
Radio signal being an electromagnetic wave does not need even a material medium. It has velocity so incredible which equals to that of light as 300,000 km per second. But sound is a mechanical wave which needs badly a material medium and its speed is just 350 m/s in air and some how higher in solids
-- Microwave ARE radio waves.-- All electromagnetic waves travel at the same speed, including radio, microwaves,heat, infrared radiation, light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays, gamma rays, and allthe others.

Radio signals propagate faster than sound signals. Speed of light (radio) is about 186,000 mps Speed of sound is about 1100 fps (0.5 mps).

The GPS system is a network of devices that communicate by radio. Radio signals are electromagnetic radiation, just as light is, and they travel at the same speed as light does.
Radio waves are sound. Therefore, yes, by definition, they travel at the speed of sound.
yes they travel faster No.. No they don't. Not even close. I've heard two theories regarding things that are faster than light. Which are the expansion of the universe and a Polarization Synchrotron device that makes radio waves travel faster than the speed of light. http://www.universetoday.com/2009/06/30/device-makes-radio-waves-travel-faster-than-light/
Radio waves are just low frequency light waves. They travel at the speed of light, much faster than sound waves which are just changes in pressure traveling in waves
Radio wave travel faster than sound wave. Radio wave is the same as light wave except at different wavelength. It travel at speed of light (3 x 108 m/s). Sound wave travel at only 330 m/s and probably can go up to 3,300 m/s in solid medium which is far slower than the speed of light.
They are the same physical phenomenon, with the same identical speed.
Radio signals can travel through salt water.
The same. Both are electromagnetic waves; in a vacuum, they both travel at the speed of light.
It would be a tie; both light and radio are electromagnetic waves, as are X-rays, gamma rays, ultra-violet and infrared. They all travel at the same speed, the "speed of light", which is about 300,000 km/second, or 186,000 miles per second.
