Structure 128478 about 9.1 km (5.7 mi) from Anahuac, TX is recorded in the FCC's Antenna Structure Registration database as a guyed tower measuring 152 m (499 ft) tall.
Among the 14,588 registered structures in Texas, it ranks 510th by height, taller than 96.5% of them.
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.

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.
These figures come from the FCC's Antenna Structure Registration database, filed under registration 128478. Heights and coordinates are as submitted by the registrant, not independently surveyed.
"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.
