There is an another option. PacComm had a 4 channel A-D converter board
for their Tiny-2 TNCs. It operated with the TheNet X1JR4 node software.
Each of the channels had adjustable scaling to yield whatever numbers
you wanted on the output. It has been a while since I have been
involved with packet but as I recall it would send out the info as part
of a bulletin packet or possibly on request. You would need a packet
terminal to display the result.
I am not sure if the AD-4 is still available (it is mentioned on their
website but not shown as a current product) but the actual circuit was
quite simple and a diagram was available as I recall with the X1JR4 info.
