Land mobile radio - business channel or "company channel" - I've heard these guys before during band openings, I think it's a logging company, or another similar type user that operates in a relatively small area of operations as it were - as opposed to over the road truckers.  That, or this is a channel/frequency associated with a specific area.  Heard one OM mention "the tire place" as a landmark - and the other driver he was talking to knew exactly which place he was talking about. 

Very weak SSB activity on 26.520 MHz LSB and 26.510 MHz LSB causing very minor QRM, basically a non-issue, this is a good frequency choice all things considered.
