<div>I'm also aware that a common recommendation is to tag them
as towers, but I would not see this as a good option, for
"big/high structures" we could have a basic distinction
already in the main tag (and these tags are also already
used), e.g. cooling_tower, chimney, dish, lighthouse,
bell_tower, water_tower, flagpole etc. rather than cramming
everything into a big "pre-category", which isn't useful on
its own anymore because of the very broad scope.</div>
<div>If a tower is a structure that is higher than wide, some
dishes could fall out. If you require a tower is a structure
where people can go into or atop, a requirement that isn't
currently set but isn't completely unreasonable either, dishes
would also be excluded.</div>

A tower of a mast could be used for lighting, or an antenna. Or
flags, or a signal lamp ...

The tag mast or tower should not be assumed to indicate the presence
of another feature. <br>
OSM guide - one feature = one OSM entry. <br>
So tag the mast/tower.. then add another entry for the antenna (or
other feature). <br>
