Overview

Registered with the FCC as structure 2638559, this tower about 13 km (7.9 mi) from Frankfort, KY was built in 2003 and rises 94 m (310 ft) from the ground.

It is taller than 73% of the 2,880 registered structures in Kentucky, placing it 778th statewide.

Cellco Partnership holds the registration directly. Carriers own a minority of registered structures — most lease space on towers held by independent tower companies.

From 94 m up, the horizon sits about 40 km (24.9 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 pole 7.4 km (4.6 mi) to the SE, standing 82 m tall.

It is one of 32 structures on the FCC register in Frankfort, KY, and dates from the 2000s.

About this record

A freestanding tower whose specific construction is not further specified in the registration.

All measurements shown are taken from FCC registration 2638559. 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.
