			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The following is an actual transcript of the process of trying to activate an additional receiver to my Bell ExpressVU TV satellite system. I have no idea if it worked or not. This is the third or fourth time I tried, the first being on the receiver itself. The second time failed because they don&#8217;t tell you what format they want their numbers in (hint, the R0 and S0 bits at the beginning of Receiver ID and SmartCard ID are both necessary, the bit after and including the dash are not. Tricky!). My own thoughts are included in the bits inside the asterisks. *** like this! ***<br />
