Okay so...
Maybe we've just missed the boat entirely.

Perhaps these ET beings, if they do exist don't transmit, emanate, give off
or produce any kind of detectable RF for us to pick up with our current
technology.  That's a lot of processing gone to waste.

Okay, time for a break... Maybe when I get back, Wirt will have elaborated
as to why the previous statement is fraught with misinformation.
