Cell towers output at high power as well. For every 3 feet of air the power is reduced by 1/2.

Hmmm, I thought it had to do with the Inverse Square Law.

The energy or intensity decreases by a factor of 1/4 as the distance is doubled

Cell towers are low power less then 1k Watt ERP. TV broadcasters are 100K Watts with a 1 million Watt ERP on an attennae array.

And your loss in Air isn't true for power.

It's the inverse square law. You have to square the power output of a tower to get a 3db (x2) increase in power x distance away.
