Overview

Structure 105538 in Kirbyville, TX is recorded in the FCC's Antenna Structure Registration database as a guyed tower measuring 150 m (492 ft) tall.

Compared with other guyed tower registrations in Texas, it is 46.8% taller than the median of 102 m.

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.

Line-of-sight distance from the top of a 150 m structure is about 50 km (31.3 mi) under the standard 4/3-earth model. Actual usable range is normally much shorter, since hills, buildings and foliage all cut into it.

Its nearest neighbour is a lattice tower 3.4 km (2.1 mi) to the ESE, standing 66 m tall.

It is one of 24 structures on the FCC register in Kirbyville, TX, and dates from the 2010s.

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.

Details on this page come from the FCC's public ASR file. The register records the physical structure and its owner; it does not list the antennas mounted on it or the networks they serve.

"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.
