Guyed tower 123938
Gray, Georgia · Jones County
Overview
Dating from the 1990s, this guyed tower about 11 km (6.6 mi) from Gray, GA is registered as ASR 123938 and reaches 152 m (499 ft) above ground.
Among the 5,701 registered structures in Georgia, it ranks 148th by height, taller than 97.4% of them.
Vb Nimbus, 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 152 m has a theoretical sightline of 51 km (31.6 mi). Terrain and obstructions reduce this in practice, often substantially.
Its nearest neighbour is a lattice tower 1.9 km (1.2 mi) to the W, standing 70 m tall.
It is one of 24 structures on the FCC register in Gray, GA, and dates from the 1990s.

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 123938. 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.
