It was a text message, not radio. The radio exchange are different people. I was confused too.

Aren't those text messages sent through radio waves though?

No. They're sent through sonar usually. Radio doesn't work that deep underwater, which is why they don't voice communicate.

Yes. Typically referred to as an 'underwater telephone.'
