At 127 m, the radio horizon for an antenna at the top of this structure works out to roughly 46 km (28.8 mi). That is a geometric limit for flat, unobstructed terrain — real coverage depends on transmit power, frequency, terrain and what is in the way.

The site lies 10 km (6.4 mi) outside Rhinelander, which is characteristic of structures placed for terrain and line of sight rather than proximity to population.

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.
