cell site locators?

Are there any web sites that list or show the locations of all the cell
sites in an area? The ones I've looked at like cell reception.com show
some (maybe actual towers???) but don't show locations such as on
buildings, light towers at ball fields, etc.

No, carriers are not required to disclose their transmitter locations
and there are no comprehensive 3rd party websites that have this
information.

The only information that is available is if the structure (tower) is
over 200' tall, close to an airport, or if the antennas on an already
existing structure (building) extend 20' over its current hight. And
even with this information there could be numerous carriers at the same
location, but they are not required to disclose that they exist there.
The structure information is registered with the FCC.

The only carriers required to "site license" are NEXTEL (now Sprint)
and SoLinc who are ESMR's and conform to FCC Part 90 rules.

hope this will help.
I have only found this one so far.

Good Luck,

I don't think yor going to find a complete or current list, except
possibly in a few areas where a hobbyist may have tracked down local
towers.

There's a list of tower links here...

Some of the links on this site include those 'hobbyists"
