You'll also want to invest in a good spectrum analyzer if you go the WISP route. I recommended 3.65 Ghz because it is likely quiet in your area, but specific links may need 900MHz (most forgiving when a link isn't quite perfect line of sight), 5 GHz, or 2.4 GHz to work well and the spectrum analyzer will give you great insight on what could interfere or how strong the signal from the POP really is. You may have to make agreements with some of your customers in good locations to place multiple antennas on their site to serve other customers who may not have a good LOS to the main POP. You'll also have to figure out things like authentication and access control (you'll want to cut off non-paying customers!), subnetting/VLANS, size of netblocks (or become an IPv6 only ISP?), etc. early on so you're not re-configuring many CPEs when you realize you need to manage many customers and not just sharing services with a few friends!
