Orangeburg, South Carolina · Orangeburg County
Overview
Dating from the 2000s, this guyed tower in Orangeburg, SC is registered as ASR 104814 and reaches 187 m (614 ft) above ground.
Within its county it ranks 1st out of 109 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.
Using the standard radio-horizon formula, an antenna at 187 m has a theoretical sightline of 56 km (35 mi). Terrain and obstructions reduce this in practice, often substantially.
Three other registered structures sit within 1.8 km (1.1 mi), the nearest 59 m to the SSE.
The registration dates from the 2000s, part of the 3,406 structures on file for South Carolina.

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.
