The overall noise level has increased significantly in the past couple of decades. This noise will propagate just like a radio station. Since it comes from every direction, it really can't be nulled. Other than putting a BOG at the end of a peninsula aimed straight out to sea, there's no killing it.
Is anyone in a very quiet area daytime that notices the overall noise floor increase substantially after sunset? Say at an unused frequency like 495KHz? This may be a factor in why weak DX stations simply aren't heard like they were in years past. Anyone know the next scheduled major blackout?
