You can find a lot of info online, since it's one of the easiest way to start an ISP in a rural location. Google for WISP forums.

If I did it again, in a very rural area, I would look into licensed 4G/5G vs traditional wifi.

I was looking into this same thing (rural with low subscriber numbers) a few years ago. The costs of 4G and equipment for it were obscene compared to putting up ubiquiti equipment on 5g band.

Have you checked out LimeSDR? There are a few software defined radio platforms that also have an open source community. I was thinking along those lines.
