This is really a follow on to the "405 outside of the UK" thread but is a little different.

The UK has had other standards over the years which were used for broadcast, namely the 30 line mechanical, the 240 line transmissions and also the colour NTSC 405 line standard.

Were any of these standards used in other countries, if so which ones and when roughly?

I can imagine the most likely one to have been used overseas is perhaps the 30 line mechanical system?
