From 326 m up, the horizon sits about 74 km (46.2 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.

Its nearest neighbour is a tower 2.6 km (1.6 mi) to the E, standing 140 m tall.

The site lies 15 km (9.3 mi) outside Jonesboro, which is characteristic of structures placed for terrain and line of sight rather than proximity to population.
