Overview

This guyed tower in Katy, TX carries FCC registration 613159. Its overall height is 149 m (488 ft) above ground, putting the top at 197 m above sea level.

Within its county it ranks 45th out of 1,042 registered structures by overall height.

Crown Castle Gt Company, 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 149 m, the radio horizon for an antenna at the top of this structure works out to roughly 50 km (31.2 mi). That is a geometric limit for flat, unobstructed terrain — real coverage depends on transmit power, frequency, terrain and what is in the way.

This is a dense cluster: 12 other registered structures fall within 5 km, the closest just 1.9 km (1.2 mi) to the SE.

Its county accounts for 1,042 of the 14,588 structures registered across 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.
