[aprssig] Stream/Water Gauge

[Daron Wilson]

I'll have to dig around, someone makes a nice little module for that.  It is
PVC pipe with batteries in the pipe, an ultrasonic unit to measure depth,
and a low power aprs radio and tnc.  We were going to build them as well,
but I think someone has done most of the homework already.  I'll dig around,
I've seen it.

Anyone know what hardware people are using for the APRS stream/river gauges?
I'm trying to get a starting point with designing and installing some.  With
all the recent flooding here in Eastern Iowa there has been a demand for
better monitoring of the small streams near farmland. There is also an
almost non-existant use of APRS in my area so I was thinking this might be a
good way to utilize it.
