RF Security Fence

I have buried two insulated wires about a foot apart and maybe six inches deep around the perimeter of my yard. The idea is for a security fence that will detect people/animals/cars. The theory is one wire transmits the RF signal, while the other is a receiver. Any change in signal (and some PIC processing) will flag an intruder. I can’t get it to work.

Has anyone tried this and/or can offer any advice?
