This is just an information. If you have one of the two mentioned input 
devices, you can use them to control the interface, e.g. set the 
frequency, volume etc.

A known message from GNOME.
You should not worry, you can ignore both.

In the range of the RFX2440 you won't find any FM radio, so you will 
just get static noise. Not very interesting.
Use a BasicRX or a TVRX for FM Radio, these support 88-108MHz.
