I set up GV on obi200 SP1 and can make outgoing calls with the thing. But, I have no idea how to receive calls on it. Does GV + obi200 only allow making of calls and not receiving?

GV + OBi200 can receive calls.

Ensure that you have your OBi selected as a forwarding destination at voice.google.com/settings.  Click on "Account" then scroll down to

My devices
Turn on the devices that you want to answer calls on

and check that the line with your OBi's 9 digit number (label on its underside) has the toggle switch to the right.

...and, assuming nothing, do you realize that you need to have an inbound Google Voice telephone number to make this work?  People call that number, not your OBi box.  The OBiTALK device is simply a SIP client, and another forwarding destination for calls.
