Tower 609217
Sulphur Springs, Texas · Hopkins County
Overview
ASR 609217 is a tower registered about 11 km (6.9 mi) from Sulphur Springs, TX. It stands 137 m (449 ft) above ground level.
It is taller than 92.7% of the 14,588 registered structures in Texas, placing it 1061st statewide.
The registrant is E Radio Network, LLC, a broadcaster. Structures registered to broadcasters usually carry the station's own transmitting antenna rather than leased wireless equipment.
At 137 m, the radio horizon for an antenna at the top of this structure works out to roughly 48 km (30 mi). That is a geometric limit for flat, unobstructed terrain — real coverage depends on transmit power, frequency, terrain and what is in the way.
Its nearest neighbour is a tower 8.2 km (5.1 mi) to the NNE, standing 129 m tall.
It is one of 41 structures on the FCC register in Sulphur Springs, TX, and dates from the 1980s.

About this record
A freestanding tower whose specific construction is not further specified in the registration.
Record 609217 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.
