Overview

ASR 102834 is one of 65 registered structures in West Palm Beach, FL. It is a guyed tower standing 148 m (484 ft) above ground.

Among the 6,641 registered structures in Florida, it ranks 236th by height, taller than 96.5% of them.

Vertical Bridge Cc FM, 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.

Using the standard radio-horizon formula, an antenna at 148 m has a theoretical sightline of 50 km (31.1 mi). Terrain and obstructions reduce this in practice, often substantially.

This is a dense cluster: 10 other registered structures fall within 5 km, the closest just 1.6 km (1.0 mi) to the SE.

It is one of 65 structures on the FCC register in West Palm Beach, FL, and dates from the 2000s.

About this record

A slender mast held upright by tensioned cables anchored around it. The cheapest way to go very tall, which is why most structures above 300 m are guyed.

All measurements shown are taken from FCC registration 102834. 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.
