wireless signal device?

[Henry Kolesnik]

I'd like to find a small battery powered wireless device that I could
install on a mailbox that would send a signal when the box is opened.
I'd install a set of contacts to either open or close, and have the
monitor in the house about 100 feet away. Any ideas appreciated.
Thanks
Hank
