I would like some adivce/references about compatibility/incompatibility
between the NTSC and PAL color TV systems. I have several questions like:
Are b/w receivers built for the NTSC and PAL markets compatible? B/w
signals recorded on VHS tapes? Are there any add-on products that let you
see VHS tapes recorded with NTSC signals on PAL systems?
Are VHS VCR's compatible, or do they have special components directed
toward the interpretation of NTSC or PAL signals?

I'm not sure whether this is the right newsgroup for this issue, so
recommendations in that direction are also welcome.

Thanks.
