It would be really nice to say this in the rules.  People shouldn't  have 
to wander around looking for the exact rule and example.
 
Even the Cabrillo example you quote:
 
 http://wwrof.org/cabrillo-template/cabrillo-qso-template-for-na-qso-party/

doesn't show the "DX" usage.  Mentions it at the top but it's not  shown in 
the listing below.
 
N1MM+ doesn't fill in the "DX".

Hello  Vlad, Thank you for participating in NAQP RTTY.

The QTH should be  entered as DX for non-North American stations.
The logging programs usually  do this, as it is defined by the Cabrillo 
file 
format, which can be found  here:
<http://wwrof.org/cabrillo-template/cabrillo-qso-template-for-na-qso-party/>
The  Cabrillo file format is controlled by the World Wide Radio Operators  
Foundation. 

If you try using DX, and still have problems, just send  your Cabrillo log 
to me and I will solve it. Best regards,

Hi all,

The NAQP rules allow working non-NA  stations for QSO credit. However the
NAQP robot rejects such QSOs if the  QTH field of the Cabrillo file left
empty. Then the robot accepted UA as a  valid QTH for a few Russian stations
but did not recognize F as a valid  prefix for a French station. 
Any suggestions?

73,

Vlad  VE3IAE
