Salty, I do communications work...mostly oilfield telephone and internet. Yes you can use the same line, but what we do to seperate it is use a device called "The Stick". It's a small white box, probably 1.5"x2"x8", that seperates voice calls from fax calls. If it's a fax it goes straight to your fax machine and if it's a voice call it goes straight to your phone. If you pick up your phone while a fax is going through it doesn't interrupt anything, you just hear a dead line. Where you located? I could probably drop one off to you if I'm in the area.
