Overview

ASR 2627351 is one of 27 registered structures about 8.1 km (5.0 mi) from Cumberland, MD. It is a lattice tower standing 95 m (310 ft) above ground.

Compared with other lattice tower registrations in Maryland, it is 24.0% taller than the median of 76 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.

Line-of-sight distance from the top of a 95 m structure is about 40 km (24.9 mi) under the standard 4/3-earth model. Actual usable range is normally much shorter, since hills, buildings and foliage all cut into it.

Its nearest neighbour is a lattice tower 1.4 km (0.9 mi) to the SE, standing 76 m tall.

The site lies 8.1 km (5.0 mi) outside Cumberland, which is characteristic of structures placed for terrain and line of sight rather than proximity to population.

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.

These figures come from the FCC's Antenna Structure Registration database, filed under registration 2627351. 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.
