TV towers

Antenna-topped broadcast structures

TV towers are tall structures designed to transmit television broadcast signals over wide areas.

They support antennas at heights that allow signals to reach receivers across a region's terrain.

Major cities typically have one or more prominent TV towers, often serving as landmarks: The TV towers on the ridge are visible for miles.
