Lattice tower 613424
Owensboro, Kentucky · Daviess County
Overview
Structure 613424 in Owensboro, KY is recorded in the FCC's Antenna Structure Registration database as a lattice tower measuring 131 m (429 ft) tall.
Locally it is the 1st tallest of 32 registered structures in Owensboro, KY.
Vb-s1 Assets, 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 131 m has a theoretical sightline of 47 km (29.3 mi). Terrain and obstructions reduce this in practice, often substantially.
Three other registered structures sit within 2.4 km (1.5 mi), the nearest 2 km (1.3 mi) to the SSW.
The registration dates from the 1970s, part of the 2,880 structures on file for Kentucky.

About this record
An open steel framework that carries heavy antenna loads with less material than a solid pole. Common for broadcast and multi-tenant wireless sites.
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.
