Different vertical and horizontal frequencies, number of scan lines, bandwidth and sound carrier. PAL is higher resolution (625 vs 525 scan lines) so needs more bandwidth. Probably the circuits have enough range it can handle an NTSC signal though. |
I understood that the B/W standard for anything other than NTSC, was known as CCIR.
I have a small, solid state Sony B/W set that has two switches on top, one for 120/240 volts and one for the region. Don't remember what it was labeled as. It also has channel 1 and also UHF.
I bought it, as it was different and interesting.
