Expensive.
Shoot the moon with a laser from the ISS, see the reflection for HST.
Shoot at moonrise aand again at moonset, as seen from the ISS.
That's cheap, and adequate. Clocks can measure microseconds easily,
and 200 of 'em is plenty good enough. We could have it done inside 6
months with determination. A Saturn shot will take years. Still, I'll
agree twin Cassini spacecraft using radio ..... wait..... you are on
to something!
It can be done NOW!
http://www.ssd.rl.ac.uk/news/cassini/
"Cassini is now in orbit around Saturn and sending back data. "
All we need is for Cassini to tell is where and when it is, orbit
Saturn and do it once again.

It is quite true that the same equations Einstein used would apply to
sound also. The only sticking point is the belief system people have
concerning
Einstein's "derivation" c = (c+v)/(1+v/c), which they take as a
postulate,
the starting point of all there calculations. They say often on this
newsgroup,
The second postulate is "lightspeed is invariant in all frames of
reference".
That is NOT the second postulate. That is a conclusion drawn from the
derivation.
The second postulate (really assumption) is "light is always
propagated in empty space with a definite velocity c which is
independent of the state of motion of the emitting body".
If you use their version of the second postulate, Einstein's equation
1/2[tau(0,0,0,t)+tau(0,0,0,t+x'/(c-v)+x'/(c+v))] =
tau(x',0,0,t+x'/(c-v))
and his statement:
"But the ray moves relatively to the initial point of k, when measured
in the stationary system, with the velocity c-v, so that x'/(c-v) =
t."
would then be:
1/2[tau(0,0,0,t)+tau(0,0,0,t+x'/c+x'/c)] = tau(x',0,0,t+x'/c)
and
"But the ray moves relatively to the initial point of k, when measured
in the stationary system, with the velocity (c-v)/(1-v/c) = c, so that
x'/c = t."
from which it is impossible to derive the Lorentz Transforms OR
(c-v)/(1-v/c) = c.
Einstein deliberately omitted a prime that is essential, he was a
huckster.
His equation should be
1/2[tau(0,0,0,t)+tau(0',0,0,t+x'/c+x'/c)] = tau(x',0,0,t+x'/c)
Even if I can't prove he was a criminal, his only defense
is that he blundered. So which is it? Idiot or Huckster?
I don't think for one moment he was an idiot.
I do think his followers are, though.
