A controller (112) queues (602) store-and-forward transmissions in corresponding blocks (506) of data having a predetermined length, and sends (604) the blocks of data to a transmitter (116). The transmitter stores (606) the blocks of data in preparation for transmission. The controller then determines (608) a need to transmit the data for a near-real-time transmission. In response, the controller and the transmitter cooperate (610) to replace, at the transmitter, a block of the blocks of data that has been received but has not yet been transmitted, with the data for the near-real-time transmission.
