Patron-Exclusive Prizes 
We all love to win stuff, and every now and again we hold exclusive "Patron only" contests. We don't want to sound like a lottery, because that's not the intent -- but between us, just so you know, the odds are pretty high during these draws since it's such an exclusive group of people who are eligible to win.

About Us
The Category5 TV Network has been broadcasting live Internet-based TV programming since 2007.

Category5 TV features shows such as:
  • Category5 Technology TV - www.Category5.TV
    Free tech TV broadcast featuring Linux, Open Source, Cool Gadgets and More! A 1-hour live show every week, with all back-episodes available right here on Roku. More than a TV show; Category5 is an exciting, interactive community broadcast.
  • New Every Day - https://neweveryday.tv
    Join Jenn Wagar and Carrie Webb as they sit down for a heart-to-heart discussion each week, addressing many of the issues Christians face in their day to day lives, and building your faith and focus through relevant conversation.
  • The Category5.TV Newsroom - http://newsroom.category5.tv
    Sasha Dirmeitis takes us through the top tech-centric news stories each week... with a slight Linux bias.
  • The Pixel Shadow - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXGHjsVs6go...
    Minetest is a free, open source alternative to Minecraft, and The Pixel Shadow offers in-game tutorials and exciting gameplay. Geared toward an audience aged 6-14.
  • The Show Show - https://theshowshow.tv
    Join Robbie Ferguson as he shares years of Internet broadcasting experience to help get you started with webcasting.
  • Try It. Buy It. - https://tryitbuyit.tv
    A unique product review show, providing you a genuine, unbiased view of products that are available for purchase online. You'll get much more than just an unboxing or product review—Sasha provides a comprehensive look at each product she reviews.
  • Nature Sounds of Ontario Canada - https://nature.category5.tv
    Recorded in full-quality binaural stereo sound. Nothing added (no rookie pan flute, no subliminal messages), nothing taken away. We do our best to replicate the beauty of nature through sound recordings.
  • The Drone Zone
    Learn to fly! The Drone Zone is coming soon to the Category5 TV Network.
Starring: Robbie Ferguson, Sasha Rickman, Jenn Wagar, Carrie Webb, Jeff Weston, Henry Baillie Brown, MangleFox70 and Mortimer.

Goals
$138 of $500 per month
Let's upgrade our broadcast server! We broadcast at 1080p and with our 4K camera, it takes more power than we have to do some of the things we'd love to do, like live Chromakey with a 4K source (we can currently only do this with our 1080p cameras). Let's make our programming look better than ever.
