Tower array 109386
Near Yuma, Arizona · Yuma County
Overview
The FCC lists structure 109386 about 26 km (16 mi) from Yuma, AZ as a tower array element. Overall height above ground is 96 m, or 315 ft.
It is taller than 96.9% of the 1,789 registered structures in Arizona, placing it 56th statewide.
Vb-s1 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.
The geometric radio horizon at this height is roughly 40 km (25.1 mi). Treat it as a ceiling rather than a coverage estimate — it assumes flat, clear terrain and ignores power and frequency entirely.
Its nearest neighbour is a tower array element 117 m to the N, standing 96 m tall.
The site lies 26 km (16 mi) outside Yuma, which is characteristic of structures placed for terrain and line of sight rather than proximity to population.

About this record
One element of a 2-tower array. Multi-tower arrays are typically AM broadcast antennas, where the towers work together to shape the signal in a particular direction.
Source data is the FCC ASR record for structure 109386, which gives a construction date of 1951. Registrations are updated when a structure changes, so figures reflect the most recent filing rather than continuous monitoring.
"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.
