Why do they have radios, but not televisions or telephones?

No telephones because they can talk via floo powder. No television? What good has having television done us?

Only if they're near a fireplace that's connected to the network.

That wasn't the point. The point is that the wizards use arbitrarily-selected pieces of modern-day Muggle technology. The stuff that's really good - like indoor plumbing :-).
