As used in canon:

   DIvI' Se' wI'IjtaHvIS DaH ngoqDe' wIHevta'
   We've just received an encoded message on the Federation frequency. 
(MO's ST5 notes)

{Se'} occurs in {rI'Se'} "hailing frequency" and {'evnagh Se'} "subspace 
radio":

   labmeH 'evnagh Se' lo' tlhIngan QumwI'
   A Klingon communicator sends a signal through subspace radio. S19

Note that the actual device is an {'evnagh Se' HablI'} "subspace radio" 
(KBoP).

Related vocabulary includes the verbs {rI'} "hail" and {Qum} "communicate" 
and the nouns {chaDvay'} "radio frequency, Hertz", {QumwI'} "communicator, 
communications device" and {HablI'} "data transceiving device".

Scott, STIV)
