Agatha Christie: Murder on the Orient Express Hints
How do I use the ham radio once it's fixed?
1 of 5: First, go talk to Poirot to get the name of someone to contact. (You may need to turn the radio on and comment that you don't know whom to call before you can do this.) He'll tell you to look in his valise for more information; do so to get the callsign of Barnabas (later called Barnaby) in England.
2 of 5: Go back to the radio, turn it on, and click on the telegraph key to talk to Barnaby automatically. Don't worry about translating Morse code; if you have the book in inventory, Antoinette will do it for you. (Ah, if only it were that easy in real life ...)
3 of 5: Ask everything you have the option to ask. Turn off the radio and turn it on again immediately to get the answers to all your questions. After you get the first set of answers, Antoinette will ask a further question; turn the radio off and back on to get the answer.
4 of 5: The conversation should end with Barnaby saying, "I think we would get on famously." If he doesn't, it means you didn't ask everything there is to ask.
5 of 5: You can trigger a couple of these questions by looking at both sides of every item in your inventory. Don't forget the card from Dr. Constantine's suitcase and the book Masterman is reading.
