Guyed tower 605553
Griffin, Georgia · Spalding County
Overview
Structure 605553 about 12 km (7.3 mi) from Griffin, GA is recorded in the FCC's Antenna Structure Registration database as a guyed tower measuring 153 m (502 ft) tall.
It is taller than 98% of the 5,701 registered structures in Georgia, placing it 116th statewide.
Pinnacle Towers 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 153 m has a theoretical sightline of 51 km (31.7 mi). Terrain and obstructions reduce this in practice, often substantially.
Its nearest neighbour is a tower 475 m to the NW, standing 137 m tall.
It is one of 36 structures on the FCC register in Griffin, 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.
Details on this page come from the FCC's public ASR file. The register records the physical structure and its owner; it does not list the antennas mounted on it or the networks they serve.
"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.
