San Diego, California · San Diego County
Overview
Registered with the FCC as structure 2661360, this tower about 15 km (9.4 mi) from San Diego, CA was built in 2008 and rises 136 m (446 ft) from the ground.
Of the 207 structures registered about 15 km (9.4 mi) from San Diego, CA, this is the 3rd tallest.
The structure is registered to Multicultural Radio Broadcasting, INC., which holds 23 registrations across California.
From 136 m up, the horizon sits about 48 km (29.8 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 1.8 km (1.1 mi), the nearest 1.3 km (0.8 mi) to the N.
The site lies 15 km (9.4 mi) outside San Diego, which is characteristic of structures placed for terrain and line of sight rather than proximity to population.

About this record
A freestanding tower whose specific construction is not further specified in the registration.
All measurements shown are taken from FCC registration 2661360. 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.
