Good question. My experience using these devices coupled with a short wave radio gave us a rate of about 150-300 baud. If you figure 8 bits per baud, you get 2400 bps. However, you asked about bytes so I'm thinking we can simply go back to the original number and say 300 BPS. Other hardware

By not specifying a date, you extracted records from the 2 hour window for every day present in the SMF data. While probably not a problem, the ":17" is superfluous for a single record type. As suggested, DAF is the tool of choice for this since it will allow you to eliminate the records for te
