I like #5.  I may just make up a small project box unit for this sort of
thing.  Great idea to put a "high power" tone generator on the line.  It
would probably work as the signal source for a underground cable too.  Set
it up with a switch to select solid tone or warble tone.  Now to test
battery life and see how small a (battery/battery set) would actually be
useful for this.
