Radio channels
You can speak on a radio channel you have access to by using one of the channel prefixes below. Colons or periods can be used to: .m or :m with both talk on the medical channel. Note that the common channel uses a ; prefix. If you miss a message you can scroll up to read it. If chat keeps autoscrolling when scrolled up you need to click the cogwheel and choose "Clear all messages".
To see a list of radio channels you can talk on, inspect your headset.

Radio Frequencies
Frequencies are encrypted, so to listen in on a department is not as easy as using their frequency; you'll need a proper decryption key, which can be obtained by using a screwdriver on a headset which contains it. The AI Private channel is an exception and can be tuned into freely.
