Only if they spoke in the clear which 99% of the time they didn't, for that very reason. Also Radio traffic was kept to a minimum so that RDF units couldn't get a Fix on your position. Remember Morse Code ? Well most of the radio traffic was coded Morse Code. Besides it was only till the latter stages of the war that "Walkie Talkie's" came about and their range was rather low.
Morse Code - HF
Walkie Talkie's - VHF
HF - long range (can go global)
VHF - line of sight. (needs repeaters to get long range)
BUT - IF u didn't understand the coded msg, you knew it wasn't 1 of your's
