Monopole 2685417
Whittier, California · Los Angeles County
Overview
The FCC lists structure 2685417 in Whittier, CA as a monopole. Overall height above ground is 78 m, or 257 ft.
The median monopole in California is 21 m tall across 1,241 registrations, so this one sits 268% above the typical height for its type.
Los Angeles Smsa Limited Partnership holds the registration directly. Carriers own a minority of registered structures — most lease space on towers held by independent tower companies.
Height sets an upper bound on reach: about 37 km (22.7 mi) to the radio horizon for equipment mounted at the top. This is a theoretical maximum over flat ground and says nothing about signal strength.
The closest other registered structure is 32 m to the NW. In total there are 23 other registered structures within 5 km.
California has 1,241 registered structures of this type, and this is one of them.

About this record
A single tubular shaft. Cheaper to permit in built-up areas because it takes little ground space and reads as less industrial than lattice.
