Overview

Registered with the FCC as structure 102386, this lattice tower about 18 km (11 mi) from Juneau, AK was built in 1952 and rises 99 m (325 ft) from the ground.

The median lattice tower in Alaska is 32 m tall across 448 registrations, so this one sits 210% above the typical height for its type.

The structure is registered to Alaska Broadcast Communications, INC., which holds 2 registrations across Alaska.

From 99 m up, the horizon sits about 41 km (25.5 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.

This is a dense cluster: 19 other registered structures fall within 5 km, the closest just 199 m to the SE.

The registration dates from the 1950s, part of the 1,484 structures on file for Alaska.

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.

These figures come from the FCC's Antenna Structure Registration database, filed under registration 102386. Heights and coordinates are as submitted by the registrant, not independently surveyed.

"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.
