Guess I'm learning too as I ran into the same dilema in the CW NAQP.  I 
only had a couple of DX call me and I ended up not logging them.  As far 
as the Country file goes, this appears to be just for North American DX 
(Caribbean, etc.).  I did work a couple of NA DX and they entered OK.  
Don't recall seeing anything in the manual or notes about entering "DX" 
for non-NA DX, but makes sense and I'll remember that...
