I don't think a riding mower can bury them.  A big tractor (40HP) with a 
subsoiler can rip a rough trench.   A trencher like they use for cable and 
telephone lines can dig and bury at the same time but I don't know how well it 
would work for your short distances: near the antenna you are likely to cut one 
wire while doing the next.
