Overview

Structure 2625050 about 25 km (15 mi) from Detroit, MI is recorded in the FCC's Antenna Structure Registration database as a monopole measuring 47 m (155 ft) tall.

The median monopole in Michigan is 52 m tall across 662 registrations, so this one sits 8.3% below the typical height for its type.

Registration is held by Stc Five LLC, which owns 4 of the structures registered in Detroit, MI.

From 47 m up, the horizon sits about 28 km (17.6 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 1.9 km (1.2 mi) to the ENE. In total there are 13 other registered structures within 5 km.

The site lies 25 km (15 mi) outside Detroit, which is characteristic of structures placed for terrain and line of sight rather than proximity to population.

About this record

A single tubular shaft. Cheaper to permit in built-up areas because it takes little ground space and reads as less industrial than lattice.

All measurements shown are taken from FCC registration 2625050. 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.
