Even with the full-size cty.dat, TRLog would have shown ITU zone 24 for UA0IDZ, since the full cty.dat includes the zone information UA0I(19)[24].  So maybe UA0IDZ's card is wrong, or maybe he is a special case not included in the current AD1C cty.dat file.  QRZ.com shows his QTH at 59.56 degrees north, implying zone 34, but he is certainly close to the 60-degree boundary with zone 24.

As I remember when looking at this years ago, there are some corner cases
where the answer might occasionally be wrong.
