As long a 'Rare DX' uses CW, CW will live and thrive in the DX community.

I've seen this DX term here and there, but, can't seem to find out what it
stand for, or what a DX community
is. Can you post some info or links on what this is/involves?

Thanks,

DX simply means distance. If you are talking about HF transmissions, it
normally refers to countries outside your own. If you are talking about VHF
and higher, it can be within your own country but at distances beyond line
of site communications.

The "DX community" is simply a term that refers collectively to those who
are particularly interested and involved in the longer distance radio
contacts.
