Guyed tower 612194
Bastrop, Texas · Bastrop County
Overview
ASR 612194 is a guyed tower registered about 11 km (6.5 mi) from Bastrop, TX. It stands 151 m (494 ft) above ground level.
The median guyed tower in Texas is 102 m tall across 2,467 registrations, so this one sits 47.5% above the typical height for its type.
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.
At 151 m, the radio horizon for an antenna at the top of this structure works out to roughly 51 km (31.4 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 4.8 km (3.0 mi), the nearest 1.2 km (0.7 mi) to the NE.
The site lies 11 km (6.5 mi) outside Bastrop, 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.
Source data is the FCC ASR record for structure 612194, which gives a construction date of 1993. Registrations are updated when a structure changes, so figures reflect the most recent filing rather than continuous monitoring.
"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.
