The National Association for Amateur Radio (AARL) has a web site with
all the regulations pertaining to USA hams using their radios abroad.
Basically you can use your radio legally (following the correct
procedures) in the French Islands under CEPT agreement and in Trinidad
and Tobago or Venezuela under IARP agreement. For most of the the rest
you should have a local license, though you can operate in
international waters if your vessel is the same registry as your
license. Clearly International waters does not mean at anchor in an
island!
The general AARL website is: www.arrl.org
The site pertaining to overseas operation is: www.arrl.org/FandES/field/regulations/io/#IARP
