Guyed tower 121983
Macon-Bibb County, Georgia · Twiggs County
Overview
Structure 121983 about 14 km (8.8 mi) from Macon-Bibb County, GA is recorded in the FCC's Antenna Structure Registration database as a guyed tower measuring 275 m (901 ft) tall.
Compared with other guyed tower registrations in Georgia, it is 182% taller than the median of 98 m.
American 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.
From 275 m up, the horizon sits about 68 km (42.4 mi) away. Coverage in the real world falls off well before that limit because of terrain, buildings and the physics of the band in use.
Its nearest neighbour is a guyed tower 273 m to the NE, standing 262 m tall.
Georgia has 826 registered structures of this type, and this is one of them.

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.
