Easy. Go to activation screen, select phone number 1, enter ESN from handset
C, activate. Wait a few minutes, dial *228, option 1. Then test handset C
for incoming and outgoing capability.

Return to start of activation screen. Select phone number 2, enter ESN from
handset A, repeat last few steps from above.

Done.

Keep handset for a spare or sell on Ebay (wipe all info first if you do).
I'd recommend keeping it for a spare, you can re-activate anytime yourself
online.
