This navaid is on a barrier island off the coast of the United States. 
It’s named after the nearby city, but is not located at the airport, which has regional jet service from a large hub.
You could say that the name of the island has two personalities.

Answer: OOM (Hoosier)

This Navaid is located in the United States, at a former U.S. Air Force base. 
It’s named after the nearby unincorporated community, which had been a city until it burned to the ground in 1911. 
A river passing through the area, draining into a large lake, shares the same name as the VOR.
The airport, which has a different name and identifier, is used as maintenance facility for an airline.

ASP (Au Sable)

This month's navaid is in the United States, along an Interstate Highway.
It’s named after a lonely place on the former Santa Fe railroad, and it shares its name with a nearby quarry.  
It's not far from where an event (which was given the same name) occurred that caused an Amtrak train to derail.

It's also a male name from mythology, and sounds similar to a metric system unit of area.

This month's navaid is located in the United States.  

Its name is the same as the nearby regional airport, but with a different identifier. 

They are both named after the river that flows through the area, which itself has the name of an unprincipled, deceitful individual.

That's a stratovolcano in the distance
