Guyed tower 607641
Caldwell, Texas · Burleson County
Overview
Registered with the FCC as structure 607641, this guyed tower in Caldwell, TX was built in 1981 and rises 140 m (459 ft) from the ground.
Within its county it ranks 3rd out of 49 registered structures by overall height.
K2 Towers III, 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 140 m has a theoretical sightline of 49 km (30.3 mi). Terrain and obstructions reduce this in practice, often substantially.
Its nearest neighbour is a guyed tower 168 m to the ESE, standing 127 m tall.
The registration dates from the 1980s, part of the 14,588 structures on file for Texas.

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 607641. 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.
