Still, it's anyone's guess as to why there was not voice communications during this whole time.

Indeed, to *see* over the horizon - the signal needs to be bouncing off the atmosphere or ground - which makes pinpointing location not quite that useful. Long Range Rader lets you know something is out there, but that is pretty much it.
