Not much better now - even Oceanside, the mw dial is a wall of noise with 
virtually nothing standing out - much less any DX.

4 years ago, Tahiti, Tonga and Marshalls would be booming in by 9 PM local
Last couple of nights - just power line hash.

Will keep trying.

Lots of power line noise in Hawaii. Little good grounding with Lava rock, I
was over there several times and in having dinner with engineer Alan
Roycroft complained that the local coverage of AM stations was poor. The
station(s) could be heard thousands of miles away, but could not always
cover their locals. The rental cars I had, driving out of Hilo up into the
Volcano area, after I got 25-30 miles away, even KIPA 620, KPUA-670 were not
all that great. Yet at night, San Francisco was heard, better than some
locals. Ground conductivity there is not great either, unless the towers are
in the ocean. Richard Wood DXed off local power with running his house off
batteries to  get rid of noise.
