Guyed tower 102700
Manhattan, Kansas · Riley County
Overview
Structure 102700 in Manhattan, KS is recorded in the FCC's Antenna Structure Registration database as a guyed tower measuring 102 m (334 ft) tall.
Among the 2,852 registered structures in Kansas, it ranks 806th by height, taller than 71.8% of them.
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 102 m up, the horizon sits about 42 km (25.8 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.
The closest other registered structure is 2.2 km (1.4 mi) to the S. In total there are 6 other registered structures within 5 km.
Built roughly 24 years ago, it is one of 20 registered structures serving the Manhattan area.

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.
These figures come from the FCC's Antenna Structure Registration database, filed under registration 102700. Heights and coordinates are as submitted by the registrant, not independently surveyed.
"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.
