Overview
ASR 2098560 is one of 23 registered structures about 8.3 km (5.2 mi) from Sugar Land, TX. It is a tower standing 64 m (210 ft) above ground.
Of the 23 structures registered about 8.3 km (5.2 mi) from Sugar Land, TX, this is the 1st tallest.

The site lies 8.3 km (5.2 mi) outside Sugar Land, which is characteristic of structures placed for terrain and line of sight rather than proximity to population.

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