Database on non-default port

A small query, whenever we have a database that has its listener configured on a non default port (i.e. other than 1521), we have to specify local_listener parameter in the instance file. Now I have 2 databases (Win-2K and Oracle 10.2.0.4), both databases are registered on 1528 port (on listener). and only one of my database has local_listener parameter set.
Now the query is, if my other database has local_listener as NULL then how is it possible for the users to connect to the database (I tried removing the local_listener entry, and then the database was not being shown in the lsnrctl status, and when I include the parameter, the lsnrctl status shows the database)
Thanks,
Ajinkya
