Narrative:

My student and I were doing some VOR and ILS tracking practice. As we were tracking outbound from pvu VOR back towards slc we made a call at about 8 DME and heard no one in the area. As we were ready to turn off the radial an aircraft was turning on to the approach course, we never heard any radio calls from the aircraft. Provo, ut, is a very training intense area and would greatly benefit from a control tower.
