41:54 in the episode, Fun says that the pilot could control the IRST, Link 16 and some of the APG-71 Modes. In the context of the episode, modes refers to functionality inside a certain mode, for example, if one of the modes the pilot was able to control was RWS, then the pilot could operate the WCS functionality associated with that mode (from what i can gather, im not sure what modes the pilot could actually control). The F-14Ds throttle also had a TDC on the left grip forward, i am referencing diagrams that clearly show a "Throttle Designator Controller" being on the front of the left-hand throttle grip.
