Isn't it possible to feed an amplified audio signal directly into the megaphones, if you connect your signal to the audio cables for the megaphones?



Melbourne PT is finally improving. This Brumby guy seems to be doing a good job...

Lucky for me, i found yesterdays paper.... The article gives a clear indication this questionable announcement was heard ON BOARD A TRAIN Exclamation

And in my opinion, it probably came from a passengers phone.

Eratik, get your facts right next time. Rather than twist the story for your own personal glorification Evil or Very Mad

It's equally possible that the PA in the spare cab had been "Hijacked".

Its got nothing to do with self glorification. Im simply posting what was covered in the media. There might even be a reasonable explaination of where it came from. Im not sure. All I know is that it was in the media, and several people who were present have made comment about it.

Perhaps a certain email of complaint sent to a Melbourne bus company a couple of weeks ago by your good self had more to do with self glorification??

Except for the bit about me opening the doors while moving. Volvo B12BLE doors have interlocks which prevent the doors from opening until the bus has completly stopped.

But yeah, its not payback. I dont care about that. No skin off my nose.

Im just posting whats reported in the media.

I'm quite sure Eratik and Metro Transit will be typing their apology's to the good people who work at North Melbourne Station, as we speak.

I'm serious guys. Stop going off half cocked, only to be shown up peddling lies.

Why would I apologize for lying? I havent lied. I might be wrong. To be honest, reading more stuff today, there is some confusion over whether it was on the station or in the train. What does seem to be fairly well agreed upon is that it happened at North Melbourne, and several passengers made comment on it in the media.

Why dosn't this suprise me another Connex Bashing thread. I am getting so fed up with reading negitive things about Connex. Its not Connex's fault the network is falling apart. Connex's Role is to run the daily operations of the Metroplitan system. If anyone is to blame it Brumby and Kosky. They supply the funds to fix the network. I know for a fact the network isn't perfect. But Connex service with me hasn't been too bad. Its Bulls** that Connex and any other Transport Operator in Melbourne got penailised for the Storms Last Month. Thats is wrong. Connex airn't to blame to something natural. An easy way of explaining the arrangement with Connex and Victorian Goverment is the same as renting a house. Connex being the tennent and Victorian Goverment being the Landlord
If you rent a house and its half fallen apart who should foot the bill for the repairs? Tennet or Landlord?
