FSS on IFR Enroute charts

That's right.

Note that you still have the "general" FSS frequencies, which they don't
print on the charts (because they are basically available everywhere).


Also, in the ARTCC blue boxes, it has all capitals of the center name,
and then is that the city name below it? Why put the city name?

In addition to the other responses you'll get here, the enroute charts
have a user's guide (along with what is printed on the chart margins).

Have a look he

You can order the book, or download the desired PDF file(s).

Subject: FSS on IFR Enroute charts

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)...It means the same as when you see it on the VFR charts
