Tower 117072
Jackson, Ohio · Jackson County
Overview
Dating from the 1990s, this tower in Jackson, OH is registered as ASR 117072 and reaches 128 m (420 ft) above ground.
It is taller than 96.4% of the 6,148 registered structures in Ohio, placing it 221st statewide.
Alltel Corporation holds the registration directly. Carriers own a minority of registered structures — most lease space on towers held by independent tower companies.
Line-of-sight distance from the top of a 128 m structure is about 47 km (29 mi) under the standard 4/3-earth model. Actual usable range is normally much shorter, since hills, buildings and foliage all cut into it.
Its nearest neighbour is a tower 123 m to the NNW, standing 128 m tall.
The registration dates from the 1990s, part of the 6,148 structures on file for Ohio.

About this record
A freestanding tower whose specific construction is not further specified in the registration.
All measurements shown are taken from FCC registration 117072. 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.
