Description
Measure supplied next-call start minus previous-call end.
Extension records distinguish participant groups, recognition credits, demonstration labels, communication intervals and source editions. A credited-hour product is a supplied recognition convention rather than assessed competence. Copy shortfalls and access-format labels do not establish actual distribution, usability or learning outcomes.
Measure supplied next-call start minus previous-call end.
When to use this tool
Use Extension Radio Call In Gap Duration when you already have previousCallEndSeconds, nextCallStartSeconds and need to measure supplied next-call start minus previous-call end.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter previousCallEndSeconds, nextCallStartSeconds. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read signedGap. Use the output convention below.
Return nextCallStartSeconds-previousCallEndSeconds, preserving a negative overlap.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| previousCallEndSeconds | Previous Call End Seconds | Required. Finite number. |
| nextCallStartSeconds | Next Call Start Seconds | Required. Finite number. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| signedGap | Signed Gap | Required. Finite number. |

} Limitations and assumptions
- Clocks must match. No recording, actual callers, scheduling, accessibility or communication outcome is verified.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
- Numeric calculations use binary floating point unless exact decimal-integer arithmetic is explicitly stated. No hidden measurement tolerance or decimal rounding is added; nonfinite or out-of-contract results are rejected. Numeric signed-zero results are exported as zero.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Use original session, participant, material, source and feedback records with the complete outreach evaluation. Check access and context before interpreting local counts or labels as effective advice or suitable educational support.
