Guyed tower 601125
Near Birmingham, Alabama · Jefferson County
Overview
ASR 601125 is a guyed tower registered about 27 km (17 mi) from Birmingham, AL. It stands 64 m (210 ft) above ground level.
Among the 4,539 registered structures in Alabama, it ranks 3272nd by height, taller than 27.9% of them.
Vb Nimbus, LLC holds the registration. Tower companies like this one lease space on their structures to multiple carriers, so the registered owner does not tell you which networks operate here.
Height sets an upper bound on reach: about 33 km (20.5 mi) to the radio horizon for equipment mounted at the top. This is a theoretical maximum over flat ground and says nothing about signal strength.
Three other registered structures sit within 5.6 km (3.5 mi), the nearest 4.7 km (2.9 mi) to the N.
The site lies 27 km (17 mi) outside Birmingham, which is characteristic of structures placed for terrain and line of sight rather than proximity to population.

About this record
A slender mast held upright by tensioned cables anchored around it. The cheapest way to go very tall, which is why most structures above 300 m are guyed.
Record 601125 is drawn from the FCC ASR weekly file dated 2026-08-23. The database covers structures that require registration — generally those over 200 ft or near airports — so shorter masts and small cells will not appear.
"Owner" is the entity that registered the structure, usually a tower company such as American Tower or Crown Castle. It does not indicate which carriers operate equipment on the structure.
