Thanks, FreekBro, but you give me (or G*!) too much credit.
<<They take your suggestions and comments and implement them.>>

If that were so, they would long ago have published and
maintained an up to date master list of where service is
available RIGHT NOW.

Instead, there are several variations available at different
G* sites, with numerous inconsistencies, and no one even
TRIES to maintain a list of permitted cross-roaming
agreements. The G* LP site list is invariably prospective,
and, as we've seen, consistently over optimistic, anyway.
The list at Globalstar Northern Europe is detailed and
supposedly current (with 43 countries) but is inconsistent
with territorial lists at (for example) Elsacom and
G*Americas.

As for roaming, G* needs to develop a chart, like a mileage
chart on a roadmap, showing between which countries roaming
is PRESENTLY permitted, for example:

US Canada Mexico Guatemala Honduras
US X Y Y N N
Canada X Y N N
Mexico X N N
Guatemala X Y
Honduras X
