Yet you can have PAL 525 lines/60Hz as well as NTSC 625lines/50Hz!!

Exactly... PAL or NTSC are means of coding colour information into a
composite video signal they don't say *anything* about line or frame
rates.

that's not true. it tells you what to expect. there is no such thing as
405 50 NTSC.



Not now - but there was. Just as I joined the BBC (1962) the tests came to
