Happy New Year!
This month's navaid is located at a U.S airport.  Its name is the same as the airport as well as the town it's located in, which is the county seat, even though it's not the largest town in that area.  The name, ironically, means "cold chill".
The photo was taken from a 767-300.

LIH VOR, Lihue on the Hawaiian island of Kauai

This navaid is at a major U.S. airport.
  
The airport, when it was privately owned, was named after a 19th century battle, in another state.  It's now named after a politician.

There used to be another VOR two states away by the same name, but the odds are that it was changed to avoid confusion.

SFO VOR (San Francisco)

This month's navaid is at a Regional airport in the United States, which also houses an Air National Guard fighter wing.  The city's name honors a Revolutionary War U.S. Army Officer and Statesman, who earned a nickname that one could say questioned his sanity.  It was founded as an Army post at the confluence of three rivers.
The airport has been (but is no longer) an air cargo hub, and now is a maintenance base for a Regional Airline.
