Using the public Internet as a backup might be worth looking into. I put a station on the air at one of my towers using the public Internet for the main programming channel (mono) and it works great. Presently 684K, but good enough for mono using BARIX codecs, and it sounds really good. WISP rates are usually very low compared to the big boys and Subscriber Modules can be attached to many dishes aimed at Access Points nearby. Many times, WISPS are looking for towers to install their "APs" onto and I'm sure a good deal could be worked out to benefit both the station and the WISP.
