A runway at a commercial service airport maintains non-precision instrument procedures with visibility minimums as low as 3/4 mile. A local radio station wants to build a 100 foot tall antenna is located 2,200 feet longitudinally and 121 feet laterally of the extended centerline. Runway elevation is 260 MSL. Antenna site elevation = 234’MSL. Using Part 77 criteria, approximately how much does the antenna exceed the allowable height at the proposed location?
