I got my ISDN line in 1996. That time I had to pay for every minute, so only one channel was used for outbound of course. :)
But later when the flat rate was possible, it was allowed to use one or two channels. My ISDN box was also able to drop the other channel if it detected an incoming analog call. It was nice in bbs business. :)
