I know the USA and UK VHS formats are totally different, but I want to send USA VHS tapes to the UK so my parents can see their grandchild. They have a monitor capable of 525 line display. Do VCRs care about the power frequency? Dave Nixon AT&T ihnp4!ihuxn!loui Brought to you by Super Global Mega Corp .com
