Any details on how this works. Since it is one way? Is there one channel that the full blockchain will be transmitted on over and over, and another that will just send updates? So, you listen to one, get the full block chain, then listen to the other for updates?
Full blockchain is not going to be transmitted at least not in the test phase that has low bandwidth. Just new transactions after the receiving node has been loaded with the blockchain through another way. How this is going to be synced is the technical partner's cup of tea.

And if you check their website, http://kryptoradio.koodilehto.fi/, you can see it is mostly for Bitcoin.
Not really. They started with bitcoin which is their major interest technically, so the site was written for that before we came in. But they are tech people less interested in pushing the bitcoin side anywhere. And you know the tech itself isn't just going to be picked up by the benevolent aliens. FIMKrypto on the other hand has great ambitions to push application of the system, so Bitcoin will benefit from our efforts as well.
