Ryan Tower is a 228.9 metre (750 feet) tall guyed mast that was erected in 1968. The tower originally stood at the foot of the Carp Ridge in the town of Hazeldean, Ontario,(currently Kanata) and was disassembled in sections and relocated to its current location for superior coverage.

Today it stands as the 15th tallest guyed structure in Canada at the summit of one of the hills of Camp Fortune in Chelsea, Quebec, providing a large portion of the Ottawa Valley's broadcast television and radio signals.

Radio stations broadcasting from the Ryan Tower include:

CKCU 93.1 FM
