Gypsum Block Loggers ?

Gypsum blocks are usually read manually although I'm aware of a couple
options for logging that include radio transmission to a receiver/logging
device (MEA, Adcon).  These are quite expensive.

I'm looking for a stand alone gypsum block logger that can be left in the
field to record "continuous" data from a small array of blocks (say 6),
which can then be downloaded.  It must be inexpensive.

Some components would be- AC power source; Actuating electronics for
periodic measurements; Resistance or current meter; Logger; Multiple input
ports/channels (nominally 6); Download port;

Supporting software including calibration of resistance to tension for
appropriate porous media devices would be desirable.

Do you know of anything that would satisfy these requirements.

Regards,

Mike Schulz
