c# - current OperationContext is null in WCF Windows Service

I am trying to set up a Publish/Subscribe system using WCF and where the WCF server is in a Windows service. The binding is net.TCP. The service is providing a "Subscribe" method to the client so the client can register a callback handler to an event that will be raised from a DLL linked to the server. In the Subscribe method I attempt to get the callback channel using the OperationContext.Current.GetCallbackChannel method. When I attempt this the OperationContext.Current property returns NULL.

Can anyone tell me under what circumstances this property would return null?? Have I missed setting something up? I will include the service code and the interface code below. I am using c# in Visual Studio 2012 and targeting framework 4.5.

Service:

namespace WService
{
[ServiceBehavior(InstanceContextMode = InstanceContextMode.PerSession)]
public class WcfPublisherService : IWcfPublisherContract
{
    IOALogic logic = new OAControlExample();
    IWcfSubscriberContract _callback = null;

    public void Subscribe()
    {
        _callback = OperationContext.Current.GetCallbackChannel<IWcfSubscriberContract>();
        logic.BarriersChanged += logic_BarriersChanged;
    }

    public void UnSubscribe()
    {
        logic.BarriersChanged -= logic_BarriersChanged;
    }

    void logic_BarriersChanged(object sender, BarriersChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        _callback.BarriersChanged(e.BarrierLines);
    }
}
}

Interface:

namespace WService
{
[ServiceContract(SessionMode = SessionMode.Required, CallbackContract = typeof(IWcfSubscriberContract))]
public interface IWcfPublisherContract
{
    [OperationContract(IsOneWay=false, IsInitiating=true)]
    void Subscribe();
    [OperationContract(IsOneWay = false, IsTerminating=true)]
    void UnSubscribe();
}

public interface IWcfSubscriberContract
{
    [OperationContract(IsOneWay = true)]
    void BarriersChanged(BarrierLines barrierLines);
}
}

Client:

namespace TestClient
{
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
    WcfPublisherService myService
        = new WcfPublisherService();

    ServiceCallback serviceCallback = new ServiceCallback();

    public Form1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
        serviceCallback.NewMessage += serviceCallback_NewMessage;
    }

    private delegate void serviceCallback_NewMessageDelegate(object sender, NewMessageEventArgs e);
    void serviceCallback_NewMessage(object sender, NewMessageEventArgs e)
    {
        if (textBox1.InvokeRequired)
        {
            textBox1.Invoke(new serviceCallback_NewMessageDelegate(serviceCallback_NewMessage), new object[] {sender, e});
        }
        else
        {
            if (textBox1.Text.Trim().Length > 1)
            {
                textBox1.Text += Environment.NewLine;
            }
            textBox1.Text += e.Msg;
        }
    }

    private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        myService.Subscribe();
    }

    private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        myService.UnSubscribe();
    }
}

[CallbackBehaviorAttribute(UseSynchronizationContext = false)]
class ServiceCallback : IWcfSubscriberContract
{
    public delegate void NewMessageEventHandler(object sender, NewMessageEventArgs e);
    public event NewMessageEventHandler NewMessage;
    protected virtual void OnNewMessage(string msg)
    {
        if (NewMessage != null)
        {
            NewMessage(this, new NewMessageEventArgs(msg));
        }
    }

    public void BarriersChanged(OA.BarrierLines barrierLines)
    {
        OnNewMessage("new barrier lines");
    }
}

public class NewMessageEventArgs : EventArgs
{
    public NewMessageEventArgs(string msg)
    {
        this.Msg = msg;
    }
    public string Msg { get; set; }
}
}

********* New Edit *************** Thanks to SalientBrain's suggestions, I have made considerable changes to my project because I realized the service had to be long running and continually running even if no clients are connected so I changed it to a singleton. Even so, my original problem still persists. SalientBrain has asked to see my config file so I will include it below along with all the other pertinent files. I've stripped it out to conserve space, but I don't think I removed anything important. The error occurs in Subscribe method of the PulisherService class. I hope it is something stupid I did in the config file. Well, here it is:

As discussed in the comments, if you directly create an instance of the service type - as opposed to a WCF proxy/clientchannel - and then you call a method on it, there is no OperationContext. WCF provides an OperationContext instance when your operation is running within a service.
