If supporting TNP airspace format is more likely than adding a Radio field to
OpenAir version of the airspace file then this is what I found.
# Each line consists of a Keyword and a value. 
# These Keywords are defined as follows:
#
# TITLE=    Blocks always commence with a line beginning   TITLE=.
#           Most programs should display up to 12 characters of a title.
#           Programs should not change the type of airspace based on the
title.
#
# TYPE=     values are:This defines the Type of Airspace. The permitted
values are:

#           BOUNDARY            B  Boundary  FIS or country
#           A blank line, or X eg TYPE=  should set the value to blank /
unknown
#           
#
# CLASS=    This defines the Classification of Airspace.  
#           The permitted values are: A,B,C,D,E,F,G
#           A blank line, or X eg CLASS=  should set the value to blank /
unknown.
#
# ACTIVE=   airspace. This defines the normal hours of operation of the
airspace.
#           The permitted values are:
#           WEEKDAY    normally only operational during the week and
inactive at weekends
#           EVERYDAY   normally operational everyday including weekends
#           NOTAM      normally only operational by NOTAM
#           WEEKEND    normally only operational at weekends and public
holidays
#           A blank line, or X eg ACTIVE=  should set the value to blank /
unknown.
#
# RADIO=   in MHz. If used, this describes a control radio frequency in MHz
#           Values are a text field. For example:
#           127.75
#           APP 127.75
#           130.23 / 126.56
#           A blank line  RADIO=  should set the value to blank / unknown.
#           Abbreviations: APP Approach, TWR Tower, RAD Radar, INF
Information
#
# TOPS=
# BASE=     Each block of airspace requires a BASE= and TOPS= statement
#           in order that Air_Check can detect infringements. The BASE can
be
#           defined as a Flight Level or ALT. TOPS will normally be a Flight 
#           Level. For example:
#           WIDTH=10
#           BASE=2500ALT
#           TOPS=FL245
#           or
#           WIDTH=10
#           BASE=FL55
#           TOPS=FL245
#           BASE=SFC

Hi!

Since 6.0 is now out there we officially support the TNP airspace file
format. I haven't yet heard of that radio frequency field though. Could you
provide us with some more information about that?!

I guess it would be best to open a ticket on trac if anyone would want us to
implement it, so that we don't forget ;)

Adding a frequency field to the open air format isn't as easy as it sounds.
The problem is that the people providing the open air file need to be aware
of such a feature and use it. Also the addition of stuff to that file format
standard is not within our hands... The only thing we could do is support a
non-standard, but I don't really like that idea.
