Next time you're in the area, can you get a few pictures of it for me? Glad it's still intact. I collect pictures of VORs, believe it or not. I put them on the Airline Dispatchers Federation's website with clues, and people try to guess them.
Thanks!

Thanks very much! You got me in the right spot. The Thurman and Denver VORs are still around. I know that the DEN VORTAC (117.0) was shut down and the new one (117.9) was activated when Stapleton closed and DIA opened.
I found the Thurman VOR (39-41-53.943N / 103-12-53.779W) and then went looking for the old Denver VOR. That got me to a 1985 Airport/Facility Directory, and the IOC VORTAC was listed in it!
It is still there about 11 miles south east of home. Looks like I must have flown over what I call home now dozens of times.
Thanks again
