Other than by the copious radio frequency emissions, but even that method is only possible out to less than 100 light years, since we've not been putting out much of that stuff any longer than that.Only in the microwave band. TV and other stuff at the lower frequencies get attenuated pretty quickly. Unfortunately (or fortunately depending how you see it) "I Love Lucy" is not going to the stars.

Sure it is, as spillover from the satellite uplinks of the reruns, which IIRC are in the microwave band.
