Default Jepps airport and VOR names ... how used?

Paul Tomblin wrote:

So why are so many VORs around here still sharing the name and ident with
the local airport? SYR, ROC and BUF are all FAA ids that are shared
between airports and their on-field or nearby VORs. BUF VOR is even part
of the BUFFALO ONE departure from BUF airport, and is part of the feeder
routes for several instrument approaches there.


Flying out of Syracuse, I was thinking the same thing...
