Basic regular expression
var str = "radio_3_5";
console.log(str.match(/^[a-z]+_\d+/i));
And how the reg exp works
/ Start of reg exp
^ Match start of line
[a-z]+ Match A thru Z one or more times
_ Match underscore character
\d+ Match any number one or more times
/ End of Reg Exp
i Ignores case
Or with split
var str = "radio_334_1234";
var parts = str.split("_");
var result = parts[0] + "_" + parts[1];
Or even crazier (would not do)
var str = "radio_334_1234";
var result = str.split("_").slice(0,2).join("_");
solved Javascript SUBSTR
