This isn't regulatory. It's Optus deciding that if they didn't sell the handset or its foreign bought it is will be blocked. Because of reasons...
And don't ask questions because software is hard, and telecom is too technical for the plebs.
It's nothing but a blatant cash grab hidden in a thin veneer of technical babble because it's tough for modern journalists to question engineering.
Are Japan radio frequencies the same as Australia?
Sites like frequencycheck.com let you find out based on country, carrier or device
If by radio you mean the music device, no. My jap import cannot pick up aus stations. If you mean radio frequencies for phones and others, hopefully someone else has the answer haha.
It's not only the frequencies, but also the modulation and the protocol ("how devices talk to each other"). Your phone may support all needed frequencies and might still not be able to "talk" to the network.
