Overview

Dating from the 2000s, this lattice tower in Fort Payne, AL is registered as ASR 2623063 and reaches 95 m (310 ft) above ground.

Within its county it ranks 16th out of 61 registered structures by overall height.

Sba Structures, 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.

From 95 m up, the horizon sits about 40 km (24.9 mi) away. Coverage in the real world falls off well before that limit because of terrain, buildings and the physics of the band in use.

Three other registered structures sit within 2.2 km (1.3 mi), the nearest 957 m to the ENE.

It is one of 21 structures on the FCC register in Fort Payne, AL, and dates from the 2000s.

About this record

An open steel framework that carries heavy antenna loads with less material than a solid pole. Common for broadcast and multi-tenant wireless sites.

Details on this page come from the FCC's public ASR file. The register records the physical structure and its owner; it does not list the antennas mounted on it or the networks they serve.

"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.
