As noted the broadcasting standards are different between the two countries. This means that when I took one of those mini battery operated TV sets to the UK it couldn't pick up British TV even though it managed to pick up somewhat fuzzy reception from Holland. An identical mini battery operated TV set set for "UK standards" received the UK broadcasts, but not the Dutch ones.
