I'm relocating to Nairobi this winter, and haven't been able to confirm whether or not my television, which I purchased in the US in 2013 (Samsung LED) will work in Nairobi. I understand I will need a step-up converter for it, but I'm unsure if the issues with broadcasting signals still exist since I believe Kenya moved over to digital at the end of last year. Any insight or help would be greatly appreciated!

Better to buy TV there.No guarantee yours will arrive safely either or if customs will tax you on it.
