Who owns the towers in Adams County
18 different registrants own the 38 structures. One is registered to an individual or family trust, whose name this site withholds.

Height and age
The median structure here stands 195 feet, 11 feet shorter than the Pennsylvania median, typical of denser areas where more, shorter sites fill in coverage. The tallest is a tower near New Oxford at 420 feet, built in 1993. Most 55% were built in the 2000s.
Every registered structure
Sorted tallest first. The registration number opens the FCC record, which shows the exact location and the owner's contact for the structure. A tower on your land that is not in this list is probably under 200 feet and away from airports, so it did not need registering — see why some towers aren't listed.
