New Hampshire cell towers at a glance

Carriers on the record in New Hampshire
Verizon is named on the most New Hampshire sites, 41 of them (9.8%). A carrier is named only when it owns the structure or its cellular licence lists the site, so these counts are a floor, not a total. Most towers in New Hampshire are owned by tower companies that rent space to several carriers without naming them.
| Carrier | Sites naming it | Share of New Hampshire sites |
|---|---|---|
| Verizon | 41 | 9.8% |
| AT&T | 5 | 1.2% |
| T-Mobile | 11 | 2.6% |

What is not counted
FCC registration is required only for structures over 200 feet or near airports, so shorter monopoles, rooftop antennas and small cells in New Hampshire are mostly missing unless a cellular licence lists them. Why a tower is missing from the map explains the gap. The data is rebuilt monthly from the FCC's bulk files.
