+FCC allows maximum antenna gain of 6 dBi. 15.247(b)(4):
+
+> (4) The conducted output power limit
+> specified in paragraph (b) of this section
+> is based on the use of antennas
+> with directional gains that do not exceed
+> 6 dBi. Except as shown in paragraph
+> (c) of this section, if transmitting
+> antennas of directional gain greater
+> than 6 dBi are used, the conducted
+> output power from the intentional radiator
+> shall be reduced below the stated
+> values in paragraphs (b)(1), (b)(2),
+> and (b)(3) of this section, as appropriate,
+> by the amount in dB that the
+> directional gain of the antenna exceeds
+> 6 dBi.
