Tower array 599635
Kansas City, Missouri · Jackson County
Overview
A tower array element of 101 m (330 ft), structure 599635 has stood about 10 km (6.3 mi) from Kansas City, MO for about 37 years.
Locally it is the 25th tallest of 149 registered structures about 10 km (6.3 mi) from Kansas City, MO.
The registrant is Bott Broadcasting Company, a broadcaster. Structures registered to broadcasters usually carry the station's own transmitting antenna rather than leased wireless equipment.
At 101 m, the radio horizon for an antenna at the top of this structure works out to roughly 41 km (25.7 mi). That is a geometric limit for flat, unobstructed terrain — real coverage depends on transmit power, frequency, terrain and what is in the way.
The closest other registered structure is 141 m to the NNE. In total there are 31 other registered structures within 5 km.
The site lies 10 km (6.3 mi) outside Kansas City, which is characteristic of structures placed for terrain and line of sight rather than proximity to population.

About this record
One element of a 3-tower array. Multi-tower arrays are typically AM broadcast antennas, where the towers work together to shape the signal in a particular direction.
Record 599635 is drawn from the FCC ASR weekly file dated 2026-08-23. The database covers structures that require registration — generally those over 200 ft or near airports — so shorter masts and small cells will not appear.
"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.
