Not sure how much this will help, but here's a link to finding cell towers in your area. You can type in a city and state, and the search will show the cell towers in that area. Then you can click on the tower for identification. US Cellular has tower/carrier agreements with Sprint and Verizon, so your phone will not always be using an actual USCC tower.

This is a USSC antenna 1 mile from my property.

There's a USCC tower near me that looks like a giant flag pole. Their name is on the chain link fence.
