I have heard the terms mast and tower used interchangeably depending on the
region but I believe Wes is technically correct that a mast uses guy wires.
All of the masts/towers were removed from the residence last week.

Of course I saw the picture. If it's guyed, it's a mast. A tower is
freestanding.

Did you see the picture? The tower itself, not the mast, broke in
multiple places roughly where one set of guys attached to the tower.
You can even see the jagged edges of the hollow tower legs. That would
certainly be well below the mast.
