Overview

Dating from the 2010s, this lattice tower in Fairbanks, AK is registered as ASR 2693590 and reaches 47 m (155 ft) above ground.

The median lattice tower in Alaska is 32 m tall across 448 registrations, so this one sits 47.8% above the typical height for its type.

Vertical Bridge S3 Assets, 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 47 m up, the horizon sits about 28 km (17.6 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.

The closest other registered structure is 204 m to the WNW. In total there are 36 other registered structures within 5 km.

It is one of 122 structures on the FCC register in Fairbanks, AK, and dates from the 2010s.

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.

All measurements shown are taken from FCC registration 2693590. Height is the overall height above ground including any antennas and lightning rod, which is why it can exceed the height of the supporting structure alone.

"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.
