Not using the same line, no. SipDiscount does not allow incoming phone
calls, not yet anyway.
Your only option if to use the second line/provider on your ATA,
provided it has 2 lines.

No, you can either get a 2 Line phone, or do like me, buy a
'Combine-a-line' switch that will route both lines to a normal "1 line"
phone.. (and it works great).

Ok I was intending on using my current analogue phone so the combine a line
switch sounds the thing. Now do you have to switch over when making out
going calls.
I was considering the Linksys PAP2, perhaps you could recommend some
hardware for me ;)

Or use the Sipura 1001 which allows 2 accounts on a single phone port.

The switch will automatically use the last line used + there is a button
on the box to select line (lights on the box will show which line is
being used).
I am very happy with my PAP2.. Its got 2 lines (allowing 2 different
providers) if you wish, + at £20 you cant go wrong really. :)
But as Ivor says, there is always the Sipura 1001 which allows 2
providers on one phone.

Being registered with Sipdiscount, or any other provider, and receiving
inbound calls from the PSTN on the same line are independent of each
other. Sipdiscount may not provide incoming numbers but there are
others who do.

Alternatively, find someone who will provide you with a phone number and
have them point it to the line you want to receive calls on.

If I buy the Linksys PAP2 can have incoming calls with one provider and
outgoing on another and not need two phones.
Incidentally I can't find an unlocked one for £20, just a locked one. I'm
not sure if I'm up to unlocking one, how easy is it to get a TFTP server on
the network ??

You can only use it on one phone if its:
1) a 2 line phone
2) used with a 'combine-a-line', or similar switches.
Unlocked PAP2' retail for £40.. installing a TFTP servers on the network
is easy, just run the install, get the ip of the machine its running on,
and copy the files needed to the TFTP server (in the TFTP directory) and
off you go (more of less).
So Can I have a normal incomming number 01**
