There is at least one situation per Elric brother, when they have fixed radio
device - e.g. Edward fixed transmitter sg. Fuery was working on, and Alphonse
fixed broken radio in Reole (Liore?).

One of the principles of the alchemy is that if you want to create some thing,
you should know how it works. Which leads me to conclusion, that both Elric
brothers should have some education in terms of electronic devices, and radio
technology.

Is there any additional information on this in anime/manga etc?

Are Elric brothers good at electronics?


As you said, in order to create something with alchemy, a general
understanding of how the object to be created works is required. This was
discussed in the answer for [this
question](https://anime.stackexchange.com/questions/2260/why-cant-alphonse-
repair-edwards-automail-using-alchemy). That means the Elric brothers must
have some understanding of circuitry to fix a radio. They most likely came
across it somewhere in their studies.
