No, it won't touch your radio (though it will change the libs, if that matters to you). And yes, you flash it like any other ROM. Since you're most likely coming from a ROM that isn't closely related to CyanogenMod, you will have to do a factory reset and wipe of cache and dalvik cache before flashing.

Yes restoring your current ROM will restore libs, though I can't explain too well what they are. Also no for CM7 you do not need hzboot, only for Sense ROMs (someone correct me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty confident about that)

Flash through recovery. I would suggest updating your radio after you get on CM7, that way you can see how your current radio is before switching.

Just an added note, changing to dz hboot will change your radio....depending on how you do it.

Also once you've changed your radio and you can match the RIL files by going to ROM Manager -> Download ROM -> Virtuous -> Radio to RIL Automatcher.
