    I just received an email from the PCIA with a link to a new site locating tool,

    TowerMLS: Index

    A good starting point for new hunters, and hunters of camo sites (like yours truly).

    Be careful with TowerMLS. It was started by a tower company executive at one of the large tower companies. It is by no means a complete listing of cell tower locations. There are also companies that have included their unbuilt sites on the list- but suggest that there are actually towers at the locations. Thus, while TowerMLS may report that there is a tower at a location- there actually isn't one.

    American Tower is an ok site finder, but it's limited to those sites american tower built or owns.

    I use Antennasearch.com, but it can be combersome. Towermls.com is simpler to use and less chaotic:D

    I actually like American Tower because they even give you pictures to go along with their sites. Not too many others do that.
