superbowl on CTV and C-band FTA

If you have a C-band satellite dish and receiver, you can watch the superbowl on the Canadian satellite feed:

107.3W 4020 30000 V

It's probably on Ku band also but mine's screwed up.

DISH has our area blocked out.

I can't do streaming (reliably) because of my connection.

DISH can't block FTA satellite feeds.

I'm using an old 10 ft mesh dish, but for Ku band any of the little dishes would do. For the house, I use an Icecrypt receiver and have a Vu+ Zero 4k receiver in my garage.

The satellite at 107.3W has both C and Ku transponders and all of the Canadian feeds are free-to-air (not scrambled).
