Tower 623455
Asheboro, North Carolina · Randolph County
Overview
A tower of 108 m (355 ft), structure 623455 has stood about 13 km (7.8 mi) from Asheboro, NC for about 66 years.
It is taller than 87.5% of the 4,512 registered structures in North Carolina, placing it 563rd statewide.
The registered owner is Randolph Electric Membership Corporation. Utilities register structures used for their own operational communications along transmission and distribution networks.
The geometric radio horizon at this height is roughly 43 km (26.6 mi). Treat it as a ceiling rather than a coverage estimate — it assumes flat, clear terrain and ignores power and frequency entirely.
No other registered structure lies within 5 km, which is typical of rural and low-density areas where a single site covers a wide area.
The registration dates from the 1960s, part of the 4,512 structures on file for North Carolina.
