Overview

This tower in Kilgore, TX carries FCC registration 610569. Its overall height is 167 m (548 ft) above ground, putting the top at 303 m above sea level.

Compared with other tower registrations in Texas, it is 111% taller than the median of 79 m.

The registrant is Noalmark Broadcasting Corporation Dba = Kktx FM, a broadcaster. Structures registered to broadcasters usually carry the station's own transmitting antenna rather than leased wireless equipment.

At 167 m, the radio horizon for an antenna at the top of this structure works out to roughly 53 km (33.1 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 3.2 km (2.0 mi), the nearest 24 m to the NW.

Ranked 2nd by height among the 24 registered structures in Kilgore, TX, it sits within a network of sites that between them cover the surrounding area.

About this record

A freestanding tower whose specific construction is not further specified in the registration.

Record 610569 is drawn from the FCC ASR weekly file dated 2026-08-23. The database covers structures that require registration — generally those over 200 ft or near airports — so shorter masts and small cells will not appear.

"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.
