Re: Moisture



Hi Bov

I have played with hobbyboards 1 wire moisure sensors but wasnt happy with
them as i wasnt getting consistent readings...So i searched the net and
found a circuit which im hoping to modify and connect it to a DS10 device
and get the soil moisture status using a RFCOM RX  unit using xPLRFXCOM
.....This will allow me to move them around the garden as required as no
fixed wiring involved....Heres a link to the circuit that im going to
modify.....
