Maybe it's all part of our quarantine.
Except that 1420.40575 MHz is a favorite of radio astronomy in general. Seems to penetrate that "wall" just fine. Remember the "WOW" signal? Guess what wavelength.

We perceive the Universe but I perceive words on my monitor that aren't actually there, it's just an illusion.

What quarantine is that? Do you have some special information?

I've been theorizing this possibility ever since one of the Voyagers randomly had it's thrusters become viable again.
I'm still waiting to see what happens, when the other Voyager probe hits the same distance.
If the thrusters kick back on, on the other Voyager probe, there would have to be SOMETHING going on out there. A large bubble of unexpected matter and energy would be one of the candidates, I was considering.
Voyager 1 periodically uses its main attitude control thrusters to keep its communications antenna aimed at Earth. However, engineers have noticed that the aging thrusters had degraded since 2014, requiring longer burns to generate the same amount of energy. So they came up with a solution: use the long dormant Trajectory Course Maneuvering (TCM) thrusters for attitude control.

I prefer to consider photon-light wave duality the progenitor of what we call gravity.

It would be reasonable to assume that whatever they DID use for communication would still have some detectable interaction with the EMF spectrum.
