Calculate message transmission time

[george_santiago]

1) What is the best technique to calculate message transmission time?

2) Is it possible to calculate the transmission time using a 100 Mhz Oscilloscope, with the probe in the antenna connector? Or is it only possible to calculate the transmission time using a Spector Analyzer?

3) Which E220 settings directly impact message transmission time? Just the SpeedAirDataRate?

4) I need this information to try to identify the transmission time of a message sent by the E220, with the following characteristics:

E220 – 920 Mhz Channel
SpeedAirDataRate : 0 -> 9.6k (AIR_DATA_RATE_100_96)
OptionSubPacketSett: 1 -> 32 bytes (SPS_032_11)
Message Size: 15 bytes
and Message Size: 20 bytes

This information is important, as there are countries that only allow transmissions lasting up to 400 milliseconds.

Hi George,
I think the way to calculate that is to connect a logic analyzer and check the serial input and response time (change AUX state).
The baud rate, SpeedAirDataRate, and also the LBT that is monitoring the ambient noise and can delay the sending of the message.
