I'd suggest using whatever the modifier is for Radio Hearing to translate radio waves into something that makes sense.
Actually, no. Colors happen because when light strikes an object, there is an interaction, and some energy is absorbed, and this shifts the rest of the energy.

I would think something similar would happen if you are able to detect minute differences in the light due to it interacting with matter; if you could not you would not be able to use the light to see.

So you would be seeing colors by default, far more colors than ROYGBIV. Colors we have no experience with, because we cannot natively perceive them. Remember, radio waves ARE visible to the person we are talking about.
