'such radio you can' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both related to change as well as being verbs in their base form.

'mates' can be anagrammed to 'STEAM'.

(Other definitions for steam that I've seen before include "Pre-digital" , "Vapour from water at boiling point" , "Driving force" , "Kind of power" , "Watery vapour" .)
