Try 1-800-872-9436  OMEGA technical assistance.... nice outfit
they carry exactly what you want at reasonable prices..
also ask for their books or call 800-222-2665 hotline
pressure-strain book has applications sections and product line data
I'm not assocated or a rep.... just a satisfied customer....
there are analog ckts avaible by Ti or Motorla ect if you wish to
design your own.. but why reinvent the wheel... they went through the
stability-noise-freq problems already..

second thought voltage -> freg converter might be a little better....
analog devices, intersil, might be a source .. I believe they have
datat aqua. chips with front end gain to give 1000 to 1 v-f & f-v
conversion...

1000' is a long antenna .....

hope this helps.....
