According to the datasheet of the NRF240L1 chip, 150 μs startup time is only acceptable when the chip is clocked externally. Most modules use crystal, which require 1.5 ms to settle. I think it's okay to wait more in both cases, for a reliable startup.

Without this patch I couldn't make my module to transmit reliably.

This looks good, thank you.
