Charly,
I can speak for everyone, but DX has never been America-centered to me. If
I hear a European call CQ DX, I sometimes reply since I consider myself the
DX for him/her. When I was stationed in GTMO, I rightly or wrongly I
considered the U.S. to be DX. And then there is the Russian DX Contest
this weekend, I consider myself to be DX to the Russians and others. So I
guess it is all relative.
