Cell towers in Summers County, WV
The FCC registry lists 26 constructed antenna structures in Summers County, 2% of West Virginia's 1,491.

Who owns the towers in Summers County
11 different registrants own the 26 structures. Owner names are the registrant's legal entity as filed with the FCC; the large tower companies file under many subsidiary names, which this site groups into families where the brand is in the name or listed in the company's SEC filings.
Height and age
The median structure here stands 297 feet, 40 feet taller than the West Virginia median — a sign of broadcast and rural coverage towers rather than short suburban sites. The tallest is a guyed tower near Sandstone at 415 feet, built in 1997. Most 65% 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.
