Noooo... VORs (plural, not possessive) are in the VHF band (108-118 MHz. exactly) Glideslopes are in the UHF band (325 MHz. or so) DMEs are in L band (1000 MHz or so) Actually, the apostrophe is NOT incorrect here if you consider VOR to be a grouping of letters (abbreviation) rather than a acronym (a word made out of the abbreviation). Certainly DME is not an acronym. The rules of usage allow don't really favor one or the other.
