That's not correct.  There are some countries which specifies which radios you can use (802.11a or 802.11b) and which frequencies each radios can use.

Antennas got nothing to do with it.

Channels, Power Levels, and Antenna Gains

The information that you have provided was put by the regulatory bodies like FCC. Apart from these there are certain restrictions kept by Regualtory bodies in each countries. For eg: I work in middle east Asea, and here to use Outdoor wireless we need special approval from the Government and need to pay the Government every year for using the outdoor devices . This rule is applicable for high gain antenna also. As per my knowledge, most of the middle east Asean countries have these rules, but couldn't find any valid documents for the same

That list would be best gotten from the regulatory organization of that country. That way you have the most up to date list.
