Overview

Registered with the FCC as structure 104100, this guyed tower in Picayune, MS was built in 1994 and rises 120 m (392 ft) from the ground.

Within its county it ranks 8th out of 76 registered structures by overall height.

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.

From 120 m up, the horizon sits about 45 km (28 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 2.4 km (1.5 mi) to the SSW. In total there are 5 other registered structures within 5 km.

It is one of 23 structures on the FCC register in Picayune, MS, and dates from the 1990s.

About this record

A slender mast held upright by tensioned cables anchored around it. The cheapest way to go very tall, which is why most structures above 300 m are guyed.

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.
