I also used NA 10.57  in the IARU and found some of the same problems,  No
SO2R here , just SO all Band both modes.   I found that with the HQ stations
the Zone thing was a hassel. In that if I pre-entered the Mult/ ARRL then
worked W1AW/5 when I entered the contact after working them the Zone would
come up 07RL .  Then I had to go back and edit out the 07--   This same
thing happened with any of the HQ stations.
