Traveling the FL turnpike the other day at MM 220 (S. of the Cabin Creek plaza), I noticed a painted tall tower to my left (red lit, no strobes). Who is on this stick?

Orlando tower question
- Thread starter upstate29651
- Start date
Left and right side of the road change depending on direction of travel. You didn't indicate which way you were going.
There are two towers just south of the Canoe Creek plaza. The first one (on the left, going south, ASR 1043290, 400 ft.) is owned by SBA Communications, and there are no broadcasters on that tower. The first one (on the left, going north, ASR 1049189, 300 ft.) is owned by the Osceola County Board of County Commissioners. There are no broadcasters on that tower, either.
There is also a tower in the plaza (ASR 1215835, 300 ft.) owned by the State of Florida.
The only broadcaster visible from Florida's Turnpike between US192 and US60 is the 3-tower array of WIWA(AM). It only has top strobes because the county required them. The FAA does not.

It's south of the plaza, Mile marker 220. It's not either tower you referenced, as it's WAY taller than 300-400 ft. If traveling south, it will be on the left.

It's 1038158. Still no clue who's leasing it though.

No broadcasters are. No broadcast licenses within .3km of it.
Used to be Paxsons OTA Home Shoppng station..later called "Mall TV". He had a bunch of UHF station with the "HS" in the call letters. Some, although no longer running HSN programming are still using the HS from the Paxson days.
New question:

At this location near OBT & JYP/Lee Rd, there's a self supporting tower (not WKMG) that has a three bay & two bay FM near the top. Who is this?
