But, if thats the case why is there some that say "2.2R". I was under the impression that the R mean "receive" and you'd listen over the navaid.

Thoughts?
Jepp uses the G 'cause the "R" is already taken. "R" means that the facility has RADAR so you can accept RADAR vectors from them. No "R" means accept RADAR vectors at your own peril.
