Default Oscillator reciever?

Hi everybody! (This is the place where you would say hi Dr.nick, but you
don't)

I have two oscillators operating at the same frequency that I have salvaged
from an really old computer =). I am trying to build a transmitter and a
reciever around theese two oscillators. The transmitter should, as far as I
have understood, be fairly simple to construct using one of the oscillators,
but the reciever is giving me headaches =)

What I want is a simple reciever, not necessary audio, I only want to get a
current flowing when there is a signal. Would it be possible to construct a
simple one with the other oscillator?

I am fairly new to this sort of electronics and I would like easy
explanations or some url's that might interest me

I have many capacitators and resistors and transistors. I also have a few
coils with ferrite rods inside salvaged from old radio sets. The oscillators
are at 1.8Mhz each I think. (I have a few others that match too, but I can't
find them anywhere and if theese will work, then I won't bother looking), I
might try to use an old AM reciever and try to tune it to 1800khz, but I
would like to build it myself...

I have tried to search the newsgroup, but I had difficulities finding
anything that really helped so please don't flame that much.

Mvh Torbjørn, please excuse my English. You might understand that I'm not a
native speaker =)
