It is possible with a timer. I did it in Visual Basic before to send SMS and it was delivered using my phone as gateway, I raised event Sending, see the VB Code and the C# equivalent below-:

'VB
Private Sub ReadPort()
Dim SerialIn As String = Nothing
Dim RXBuffer(SMSPort.ReadBufferSize) As Byte
Dim SMSMessage As String = Nothing
Dim Strpos As Integer = 0
Dim TmpStr As String = Nothing

While SMSPort.IsOpen = True
If (SMSPort.BytesToRead <> 0) And (
SMSPort.IsOpen = True) Then
While SMSPort.BytesToRead <> 0
SMSPort.Read(RXBuffer, 0, SMSPort.ReadBufferSize)
SerialIn =
SerialIn & System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetString(
RXBuffer)
If SerialIn.Contains(">") = True Then
_ContSMS = True
End If
If SerialIn.Contains("+CMGS:") = True Then
_Continue = True
RaiseEvent Sending(True)
_Wait = False
SerialIn = String.Empty
ReDim RXBuffer(SMSPort.ReadBufferSize)
End If
End While
RaiseEvent DataReceived(SerialIn)
SerialIn = String.Empty
ReDim RXBuffer(SMSPort.ReadBufferSize)
End If
End While
End Sub



//=======================================================================
//CSharp

private void ReadPort()
{
string SerialIn = null;
byte[] RXBuffer = new byte[SMSPort.ReadBufferSize + 1];
string SMSMessage = null;
int Strpos = 0;
string TmpStr = null;

while (SMSPort.IsOpen == true)
{
if ((SMSPort.BytesToRead != 0) & (SMSPort.IsOpen == true))
{
while (SMSPort.BytesToRead != 0)
{
SMSPort.Read(RXBuffer, 0, SMSPort.ReadBufferSize);
SerialIn = SerialIn + System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetString(RXBuffer);
if (SerialIn.Contains(">") == true)
_ContSMS = true;
if (SerialIn.Contains("+CMGS:") == true)
{
_Continue = true;
Sending?.Invoke(true);
_Wait = false;
SerialIn = string.Empty;
RXBuffer = new byte[SMSPort.ReadBufferSize + 1];
}
}
DataReceived?.Invoke(SerialIn);
SerialIn = string.Empty;
RXBuffer = new byte[SMSPort.ReadBufferSize + 1];
}
}
}



You can manipulate the code above and add a timer control for timing.
