There is a wrinkle here. Early broadcasts are too low in power to make us very radio-bright. But after WWII, the energy and the wider spectrum make our profile soar to phenomenal levels. TV was a major contributor to our emergence as a bright radio source, astronomically. Then, in the 70's, we be

Aloha Alas, WCX was operating in the "AM" band - a bit above 500kHz - and these signals don't do a very good job at getting out of the ionosphere. http://www.michiguide.com/history/am.html To get ETs attention, you have to wait until VHF signals start to be emitted from planet earth - and fair

Back when NWA were popularly known only as the initials for "Northwest Airlines", a collector would wait years to fill the rarer classifications for his/her "type collection." Rumarutis, acapulcoites, angrites and the like were beyond the budgets of most people. Such was the case with CR2's. No on

you are forgetting the first commercial radio stations. WJR which was WCX began broadcasting in 1922 . Thats about 88 light years of radio signals from Detroit. I wonder what they would think of us hearing music and shows like "the lone ranger" and "flash gordon" . If there is anyone out there.

I don't remember the FCC code but the rules only allow transmissions of radio signals on specific wavelengths and powers. You would have to apply for a licence specifically for extra terestrial transmissions. And I dont think they would grant one. If you accidently sent a 2k watt signal at the s
