ABC Family is not even on Star Choice ( now called Shaw Direct). That channel is only available on US providers.
The only ABC channel on Canadian TV providers is the ABC network affilate broadcast stations. On Shaw driect those aren't even what you listed (there is only Detroit and Seattle).
Don't bother. There is not much power in a 9V battery.
What you should do is get a 6Ah 12V SLA battery and 0.5A automatic mains charger.
You attach to the battery an automotive 12V socket, and use the car charger for your phone.
It receives channels from satellite, in the DVB format, which are transmitted with no encryption.
Right now, the major FTA satellite is mostly religious and foreign programming.
You generally get little network or cable type programming. You can find backhauls and stuff like that.
What FTA is...
You can split the RF out with a regular TV splitter. That would provide analog SD to the TVs connected with that though.
You can get splitters for component or HDMI, and split that, running the correct cables for that.
Bell has never been FTA. Anything involving FTA and Bell (in recent years anyways), has only been related to signal piracy.
If it is aBell dish, all it can get is the Bell service, and you need their receiver and subscription to get that service.
To get FTA, you need a 36" or larger Ku dish...
I have a Sonicview 4000, and its working fine for legal FTA.
If you are looking for pirate FTA, you won't get that help here, it is illegal.
If you want to get bell, get their receiver and subscription.
DVD players seem to have a useful life of about 2-3 years, if regularly used.
With that' I'd get a cheaper non-portable player for the TV, and a better portable player just for on the go.
You might get a low power, repeater, or nightlight station. Chances are slim you would get the tournament with the TV itself.
Chances are greater you will get it with a converter box.
They are for stealing Dishnetwork. You do not want to do that, not can discuss here at Y!A.
To get Dishnetwork you need their receiver and subscription.
Toy use that receiver to its fullest, you need a bigger dish an Ku LNBF, as that is where FTA channels are.
He is pirating TV and the providers shut down the method being used to steal their programming. He needs to find something else to do the the FTA receiver which is not pirating, or get a proper receiver and subscription for the TV service he wants and stop stealing it.
