Guyed tower 2628607
Angleton, Texas · Brazoria County
Overview
This guyed tower about 8.7 km (5.4 mi) from Angleton, TX carries FCC registration 2628607. Its overall height is 145 m (475 ft) above ground, putting the top at 148 m above sea level.
Of the 37 structures registered about 8.7 km (5.4 mi) from Angleton, TX, this is the 3rd tallest.
Xcell Towers II, 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.
At 145 m, the radio horizon for an antenna at the top of this structure works out to roughly 50 km (30.8 mi). That is a geometric limit for flat, unobstructed terrain — real coverage depends on transmit power, frequency, terrain and what is in the way.
Three other registered structures sit within 5.9 km (3.7 mi), the nearest 1.9 km (1.2 mi) to the W.
The site lies 8.7 km (5.4 mi) outside Angleton, 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.
