Tower 107240
Gladwin, Michigan · Gladwin County
Overview
Registered with the FCC as structure 107240, this tower about 16 km (9.8 mi) from Gladwin, MI was built in 1994 and rises 127 m (417 ft) from the ground.
Locally it is the 3rd tallest of 23 registered structures about 16 km (9.8 mi) from Gladwin, MI.
Vertical Bridge Ntcf, 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 127 m up, the horizon sits about 46 km (28.9 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 monopole 1.6 km (1.0 mi) to the NNW, standing 61 m tall.
The registration dates from the 1990s, part of the 4,519 structures on file for Michigan.

About this record
A freestanding tower whose specific construction is not further specified in the registration.
All measurements shown are taken from FCC registration 107240. 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.
