No. I am just saying standard radio is to primitive for an advanced technology to continue using.
Telegraphs used to be out cutting edge communications tech. we no longer use it.

it is the same with aliens. They have an interstellar civilization, they need a fast than light communication system - and radio aint it.

I think SETI is barking up the wrong tree by focusing on radio.

The problem is much deeper than that.

Humans tend to anthropomorphize what aliens would be.

A great way to think about other alternatives is to look at what Terence McKenna claims about Psilocybin and DMT. His claim is that there are real alien civilizations embedded in those substances.

I am not supporting his claim (have no idea) but those are truly alien advanced high tech aliens he is describing, and of course they don’t use radio waves or any other part of the electromagnetic spectrum for anything.
