Government Grants [Abstract]  
Government Grants Government GrantsDuring the nine months ended September 30, 2023, Shentel was awarded an additional $18.3 million in new grants to strategically expand the Company’s broadband network in order to provide broadband services to unserved residences. The additional grants consisted of $9.4 million awarded under the Connect Maryland Network Infrastructure Grant Program in Maryland, $6.3 million awarded under the Virginia Telecommunications Initiative in Virginia, and $2.2 million and $0.4 million under the Major Broadband Project Strategies and Line Extension Advancement and Development programs, respectively, in West Virginia.

As a result of these programs, the Company received $0.4 million in cash reimbursements during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and has recorded approximately $1.4 million in accounts receivable as of September 30, 2023. The Company did not recognize any material amounts under these programs during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 or as of December 31, 2022.
