I looked into doing this myself prior to purchasing one and found that the resistance measurement required for the drier timber was beyond the 20-40Mohms max of most meters. I was not able to find any reference table to timber moisture vs resistance but simply borrowed a meter and using 1M ohm and 10M ohm resistors connected to the moisture meter determined the likely range required.
