My guess is you're listening too early. Offical "FCC sunrise" at KSL
for November is 1415UTC, and this late in the month actual sunrise is
probably 10-20 minutes later. 26MHz won't be open for low-powered
signals like this until at least (Utah) sunrise if not an hour or two
later.

I'd start looking around 1600 and expect to hear it by 1800.

It's also possible the 26MHz transmitter is not on the air 24/7. It may
only be on the air during live remote broadcasts - maybe a Jazz
basketball game or something like that?

There is a nice listing of some of the oddball stuff to be found at the upper
end of the SW spectrum he
