How to fix blogger errors trying to add rss feed

I have a blog that I am trying to add as an RSS feed to google reader, however when I click the rss link it gives me this error: User does not have permission to read this blog.

Through some trial and error I found a fix for this problem.

It occurs when the blogger permissions tab is set to allow only authors to read the blog, I am an author, I'm the admin also, but I still cannot add the rss feed.
I believe this is a security concern and cannot be fixed, but as a workaround, temporarily set the Blog Readers permission to anybody, then add the rss feed to your rss reader, then reset the permissions to only authors.

Works great!
