	31's 1,000 Foot Tower Falls
		Workers from Spectrasite Communications had been working on the tower for several weeks to strengthen it for a different antenna (and probably feedline) that would multiplex transmitter signals from 31 and 54, digital and analog.
		Spectrasite was then free to negotiate with anyone for tower space, but to add all they planned to do, it was necessary to beef up the tower and anchors.
		Among other rigging on the tower was a heavy "gin pole" which is used like a crane to raise heavy items up the tower and would also be the kind of thing used to take off the top 31 antenna, lower it to the ground, and re-install another antenna.

	List of masts - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A mast is a man-made support structure, commonly used on sailing ships as support for sails, or on land as radio masts and towers used to support telecommunication equipment such as radio antennas ("aerials" in the UK).
		Most of the taller masts are located in the United States, where a prevalence of masts of around 2000 feet (609.6 m) in height is the result of special rules in that country limiting structures and objects taller than 2000 feet.
		The Petronius Compliant Tower is an oil platform standing 2100 ft or 640 m (to the top of the spire) and is the tallest non-guyed structure in existence but is mostly underwater.

	[No title]
		It beggars the imagination to think of a 1,000-foot television tower as fragile, but last month's tower collapse near Huntsville, Ala., was another reminder that these structures can come down in the blink of an eye, with tragic results.
		Three men working on the 985-foot WAAY-TV tower were killed when it fell to the ground on a calm, clear afternoon, (pictured at right.) It was the fourth fatal tall-tower collapse since Oct. 12, 1996, when a 1,500-foot tower came down in Cedar Hill, Texas, killing three people.
		SpectraSite attorneys have effectively muzzled the company's officials, some of whom are considered by their tower brethren to be among the most safety-conscious in the business.

	List of masts
		On land they are also used for communication, usually as a very tall radio tower, or sometimes for microwave communication arrays.
		Towers and buildings with masts on them (that are a hybrid) are in their own list.
		Two shorter towers may be a better option the one taller one, for example, or a higher tower might not be useful if the signal is blocked by terrain nor if all the listeners are in a concentrated area and a higher tower cannot pay for itself.

	List of tallest structures in the world - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Most of the tallest structures are television broadcasting masts, followed by a mix of the taller tower-type structures (like the CN Tower) and the taller high rise buildings (like the Sears Tower).
		Scattered among these are other structures including oil platforms, electrical towers, bridge towers, etc. List is organized by absolute height since it includes many different classes of structures.
		The list may nearly contain all structures taller than 350 metres in the world, however there may be still possible further structures tallen than 350 metres as the masts used for the Russian navigation system, RSDN-20, which works in the VLF-range similar as former OMEGA and which may use also than this supertall masts.

	List of masts - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		There is often crossover in term usage as some skyscraper use the tower term, some towers use the mast term, and ironically 'skyscraper' has some word heritage from references to high sailboat masts.
		Top masts are ranked by pinnacle height; in the case of a tie, the older structure is ranked as higher.
		Once again, the list includes guyed masts, almost exclusively radio masts, though a few for other purposes are present (for example, the BREN-Tower.) Self-supporting masts are covered as towers under the List of towers, and the borderline cases are mentioned separately (hybrid designs, under water, etc.) elsewhere on this page.
