--- quoting from pulsar website to get a idea of pulsar range of
frequencies ---
http://www.s-4.com/pulsar/obser.htm

The oldest radio pulsars drop out at about 0.25 Hz. Baring & Harding
[22]. have proposed that the pulsars become radio-quiet because of
photon splitting in the intense magnetic field. The cutoff point is
the same as the equation for Bm with b=1. There are several isolated X-
ray pulsars in the 0.1 to 0.2 Hz range, suggesting that the pulsars
continue to oscillate after they become radio-quiet. The gamma ray
bursts sometimes exhibit a light curve that resembles the exponential
decay of a resonant system with a frequency of 0.1 to 0.2 Hz. In the
case of the 1998 August 27 burst from SGR 1900+14 [23] the period of
the decaying light curve was the same as the period of the pulsar,
tending to establish a connection between the two phenomena. The
lowest frequency isolated pulsar known has a frequency of 0.085 Hz

The easy proof would be to send up a spacecraft such as the recent one
that explored
Saturn and to attach equipment that can look back at Earth and measure
the radio
signals coming off of Earth's Magnetosphere. I suspect a surprize
here. I suspect the
instrument will measure a radio signal that matches the Pulsars.

Perhaps we can measure the Earth Magnetosphere radio signals from the
spacecraft out
there right now. Or, better yet, perhaps this measurement has already
been conducted
as circumstantial without us realizing it, and that all we need to do
is review so called
"old tapes" of prior space missions.

Now whether there is a distance factor involved, I do not know.
Whether we have to get a
ways out there such as Pluto or the Oort Cloud, I do not know if
dependent on distance.

    What about the radio signals coming from Jupiter's magnetosphere?
That has been measured. In fact, the signals are so strong that they
are often picked up by car radio in certain bands. The radio
telescopes tell us where the signals are coming from, and the car
radio can't. But the signals from the Jupiter magnetosphere are
STRONG.

Thanks much for that information, and looked up Jupiter.
Found this website explaining it:

--- quoting ---
http://www.spacetoday.org/SolSys/Jupiter/JupiterRadio.html

Two trillion watts. As Io's orbital motion carries it through this
magnetized ring of ionized gas, a huge electrical current flows
between Io and Jupiter. Carrying about two trillion watts of power,
it's the biggest DC electrical circuit in the Solar System.

Unlike the ordinary kind of DC circuit we know using batteries and
wires, plasma physicists believe that current in the Io-Jupiter system
is carried by a type of magnetic plasma wave called Alfven waves.

However it works, this awesome current is the power source for plasma
waves that give rise to the laser radio signals that travel away from
Jupiter's magnetic poles in cone-shaped beams.

The beams rotate with the giant planet every 9 hours and 55 minutes
making Jupiter something like a slow-turning pulsar. When the beams
sweep past our planet Earth, listeners here can pick up the Jovian
radio bursts in the shortwave bands between 15 and 40 MHz.

That is good news to me, but also, I must admit that I am a bit
downcast over this news
because I have been building the case that pulsars are advanced alien
life on planets with
magnetospheres, and here I am faced with a possibility that lifeless
planets out-compete
life-ridden planets as the better pulsar.

Sometimes good news is too good.

I did not see in that website where Jupiter's magnetosphere played any
role, and I read
those things too fast, but then I am
not sure that Jupiter has much of a magnetosphere. Apparently the
gravitional dragging of matter
from a satellite Io plays a role. And I hate to have to see that my
thesis of life causing pulsars
return to stars with gravitational dragging of something be the cause
of pulsars.

Anyway, this news of Jupiter makes things awfully more complicated and
complex.

I had a look at Wikipedia's entry of Jupiter's Magnetosphere:
--- quoting Wikipedia ---
Jupiter has a very large and powerful magnetosphere. In fact, if one
could see Jupiter's magnetic field from Earth, it would appear five
times as large as the full moon in the sky despite being so much
farther away. The magnetic field is generated by eddy currents in
Jupiter's metallic hydrogen core. This magnetic field collects a large
flux of particle radiation in Jupiter's radiation belts, as well as
producing a dramatic gas torus and flux tube associated with Io (one
of Jupiter's moons). Jupiter's magnetosphere is the largest planetary
structure in the solar system.
--- end quoting ---

I think I am going to have to revise this whole study on pulsars. And
instead of our galaxy containing
a mere 10^5 pulsars, our galaxy probably contains roughly as many
pulsars as it contains
stars, since every star system has at least one Jupiter sized planet
with a magnetosphere.
Since galaxies have about 10^11 stars, then there are probably about
10^10 pulsars in our
galaxy.

So I think I have to chuck this argument that alien civilizations in
tandem with
their magnetosphere are the cause of pulsars. At least the strongest
pulsars are probably
simply Jupiter sized planets without life. And the weak pulsars we
observe could be
life-filled planets like Earth.

Now as to whether stars can be pulsars, perhaps that is impossible
since there are no
neutron stars and there are no stars that have magnetospheres as far
as I know.

So I may end up with this pulsar discussion that they are
predominantly Jupiter sized
planets and some are alien civilizations creating a weak pulsar.
