one kind of radiation that's deadly to one species might be harmless to another....I just replied to the other person about this

You'll get a lot more exposure to radio waves from your average star than from Earth at a distance. Earth shines brightly in that spectrum but not enough to outshine a star.

There's only one kind of photon radiation. It just varies in frequency and strength from radio to gamma.

If an alien can't survive Earth's radio emissions they wouldn't have made it to Earth in the first place.
