They were listening on the frequencies she told them to listen on. How could they have known she didn't know which antenna to broadcast on?
To put things in context, this is what they used for communication between a tank and its commanders in WWI:
When the Titanic sunk in 1912, they had a telegraph on board, but no voice radio.
In the 1920s radio took off as a one-way broadcaster to receiver technology, but it still was only rarely used as two-way communications. That only really started for communications between ships in WWII.
So, although she didn't know how to use the radio in her plane, it was mostly because radio communication was a brand new thing. I'm sure what they put in her plane wasn't some off-the-shelf radio that had standard switches, antennas and parts. It was probably cobbled together from various parts and only the truly tech-oriented people understood it.
Doesn't matter why she wasn't able to handle her communication tec, she did not die because of male ignorance. If anything it was her ignorance for not learning how to use her equipment
