Rockford, Illinois · Winnebago County
Overview
This lattice tower in Rockford, IL carries FCC registration 619636. Its overall height is 55 m (180 ft) above ground, putting the top at 302 m above sea level.
Compared with other lattice tower registrations in Illinois, it is 29.3% shorter than the median of 78 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.
