Inductive Guidance

       I am trying to build a robot lawnmower(yes another guy trying this).. I need to understand Inductive guidance or RF technology a bit better to build a buried wire circuit for this.. I have read alot on the web and am starting to understand inductor/capacitor circuits.. I built a transmitter using a 555 and a 2n2222 to raise the current in the wire.. I then built a L/C circuit with a 339 comparator and I can tune it to pick up the signal from the wire(I can see this on my oscilliscope)..
