Overview
ASR 114802 is one of 34 registered structures about 10 km (6.3 mi) from Ponca City, OK. It is a guyed tower standing 152 m (499 ft) above ground.
Compared with other guyed tower registrations in Oklahoma, it is 53.4% taller than the median of 99 m.

From 152 m up, the horizon sits about 51 km (31.6 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 structure 704 m to the NNW, standing 76 m tall.
The site lies 10 km (6.3 mi) outside Ponca City, which is characteristic of structures placed for terrain and line of sight rather than proximity to population.

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.
All measurements shown are taken from FCC registration 114802. 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.
