Can EM emission spikes in the radio bands (as measured by the VLA
http://www.vla.nrao.edu or Spektr https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spektr-R) be correlated with the transit of planets as detected by Kepler? Or is the noise of the star too great? Just listening to 'space radio' of course has failed. (no real life 'Contact' stories - sorry Carl) There is so much radio noise of course in space that it is impossible to define which is actually a purposeful signal.
The idea to which I allude is to find a planet with intelligent life that has developed to the point of making analog radio waves. By restricting our listening to the exact area where there is a planet and correlating that radio chatter with planet transit. Maybe the 1.42 ghz band is quiet enough?
It would be safe to investigate such planets since their tech might not be as developed as ours. More advanced intelligences would not be wasting energy spewing it into space. (And those would be dangerous to identify since they would see us as a resource if they found us.)
