Taking a VCR to Russia

[Robert H. Merriman]

Justin,

Taking an American VCR to Russia won't do you any good unless
you're going to take a TV and prerecorded tapes too.  Then you
would only be able to watch your precorded tapes.  The TV signal
used in Russia is not compatible with American TVs or VCR's. You
won't be able to record off the air nor will you be able to play
tapes through a Russian TV.  Kak zhal',

Regards,
Bob
