I'm a little late with this reply (I haven't looked at my mail since Friday
because of the contest), but for what it's worth:

Just type over the zone number. There's room for all the characters used in the
HQ station exchanges.

No, it doesn't matter. The multiplier information is figured out from the
exchange entry.

It doesn't matter. The multipliers in IARU HF are ITU zones, so the country
name that's displayed in the entry field doesn't make any difference. Just make
sure you get the correct zone entered if you work one or the other (we should
be so lucky).
