So, does this work for all the encounters? I mean, when I encounter some NCP battle can anyone enter my encounter after 10 minutes?

After 10 minutes you can't send a distress call anymore.  Which also means no one else can encounter you anymore.

I once encountered a group of players camping an encounter and tried to radio my guys in as soon as I got sucked into the encounter, yet it said that it was too late to distress, rendering me helpless.

So, this either means that I was a second or two too late and I had just missed the time to distress (very unlikely), or the encounter life vs. distress signal time is not synchronized.

Or the timer is set when the encounter is created, and was expired before you even got there.

Ganado:
That is what I am saying, if I understand you correctly. It should be the same for both. Based on what has happened to me, and what I've seen in my own camping, the duration of time to be able to distress is less than the duration to be able to encounter the encounter. Meaning that a person can be sucked into encounter with no way to call for support because it is "too late" to distress. My point is that: shouldn't that time be the same for both, to prevent that from happening?
