I was told that only the gold phones work on a normal phone line ill drag it inside and plug it in whats the worst that can happen 
You wreck your phone line and Telstra makes you pay...
Yeah you don't want to damage their equipment...
I would like to know (just out of interest) what the differences would be? 2-pair copper I thought all payphones / phones ran on - and I didn't think they used an ISDN service or anything like that?
