Any of my companies coax that runs outside the painted tower structural parts must be painted.  If we run the coax inside the tower structure we don't have to paint the coax.

Steve,

I am not aware of any tower owners being fined for not having the coax
painted. The reason for this is that the tower is put up, painted, and
lighted before the coax is ever installed. I have also not seen anything in
the FCC rules or FAA regulations that require the coax to be painted.

On another subject that was mentioned, There are times that a tower does not
require painting. I do not remember the particulars for these but it depends
on the lighting of the tower, height and distance from the airport.

If you have an instance where a tower owner was fined for not having coax
painted I would like to read up on it.
