i was in your shoes couple of months back. tv kinera ready pari sakya thein but i didnt have the guts to take a chance. even though, north american tvs are not compatible in nepal but still you can get a ntsc to pal converter and a good voltage converter, but really good ntsc/pal coverters will cost you around 400-500 or more. however you can get cheap ones around 100 dollars. but i thought , yetro dukha garera tv lagyo , nepal ma picture ramro aena bhane? So, I decided not to. not tryin to jynx you or anything, just sharing my thoughts. Economically, its a very wise decision though. Good luck
