Look at the legend panel on the sectional. It says "R - Receive only." Also,
read the legend pages in any Airport Facilities Directory under the heading
"Communications," It's amazing what you can learn by reading legend pages.
The AS/FD answers your question by saying "122.1 is the primary receive-only
frequency at VORs. 122.05, 122.15, and 123.6 are assigned at selected VORs
meeting certain criteria." (No word on what those criteria are.)

When looking at a VOR navaid box on an enroute chart, and it says the
FSS station frequency on top of the box, such as 122.1R, does that
mean receive only for them on that frequency or receive only for the
pilot? Does the pilot listen on the VOR and transmit on 122.1
(receive only for them)?

Also, it says the FSS name below and outside the navaid box, with the
L-shaped sides. After reading the chart symbols, it says this is
remoted to a navaid site, does that mean to that VOR it's associated
with? I'm looking at L-2 by Sacramento (Rancho FSS)...
