The more I get into scanning, the more aware I have become of communications towers.
I have noticed this one tower but am unable to determine who's tower it is and what comms operate off of this tower.

Address: 571-579 3rd Rd East, Stoney Creek, ON
Co-ordinates : 43.205895, -79.729886 (if you copy and paste these coordinates into google maps it takes you right to the location)

Just curious to see what anyone knows.
Thanks

If you don't find out by other means (or even if you do...) try going
to the Industry Canada TAFL "Geographic Area" search. Enter lat/long
and a set a small radius, say 1-2km, and some frequency range.
You can't realistically search the whole spectrum, try sub-bands
such as 450-470, 928-932 etc. It could also be a wireless system
or broadcast tower, but there's usually somthing in the LMR bands
(paging etc.) on the same tower.

This is what I came up with. Obviously it won't show any public safety frequencies as they are protected.
