Abstract

Buried utility transmitters (100) and associated locator devices (150), systems, and methods used for locating utility lines (130), pipes, and/or other conductors that are obscured from view are disclosed. In one embodiment a buried utility transmitter includes a module (110) generating an output current for provision to the utility so as to generate a magnetic field for detection by a utility locator, with the output current signal having modulated signaling. The transmitter system may include a tray apparatus (120) configured to be removably dockable to the transmitter module or element or a body or frame of the transmitter system.
