I recall reading press reports of multiple F14's in formation,
but the Iranians using hand signals as had no working radios...


Sounds like maybe the press people didn't comprehend the value of emissions
control. Practicing no-radio communications does not necessarily mean the
radios did not work, just that they did not use them.
