At 152 m, the radio horizon for an antenna at the top of this structure works out to roughly 51 km (31.6 mi). That is a geometric limit for flat, unobstructed terrain — real coverage depends on transmit power, frequency, terrain and what is in the way.

Registration density around this point is 3 other structures within a 5 km radius.

The site lies 13 km (8.1 mi) outside Lakeland, 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.

Source data is the FCC ASR record for structure 619382, which gives a construction date of 1992. 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.
