Back in the late 80s/early 90s there was a station that broadcast code practice at or around that frequency. It was associated with the Bhagwan Rajneesh, and supposedly transmitted from the area of his purim in Oregon. The content was taken from his writings and related material; it made for interesting copy. I was living in the SF Bay area at the time, and the signal was clear and strong, and the technique made it easy to copy. It was on pretty much all of the time, and switched speeds periodically; I used it to practice for my license test. I moved away from the West Coast in the early 90s, and didn't pay attention to this station after that, so I don't know how long it stayed on the air in that format.
