Upper limits on the cosmic abundance of Kardashev Type III radio-broadcasting populations are set at less than one per 10^17 stars using radio source counts and commensal SETI field limits.
No narrowband radio technosignatures were detected from LTT 3780 across ~30 hours of ATA and VLA observations spanning 1–10 GHz, setting EIRP limits of 4.7×10¹²–3.6×10¹³ W.
