The poll is flawed.Answers 1,2,and 4 do not address the question.They state that the term was adopted from somewhere else but does not explain how the term "DX" came into use in the first place. eg: If it was #1 why would the ARRL require it and how did it come to be an accepted term? Someone had to think up the term before it was put into use.
QRN, if answer 1,2 and 4 dont address the question then maybe the answer is #3. It's just for fun and entertianment.Take your best guess and i will post answer later.

Please advise me to what is a good replacement mic for my SR-497HPC... Answer: 497 is "wired like Cobra", so many choices available. That radio does not need a power mic, so purchase a stock "coffin style" mic with a decent cord, like the ones that Astatic uses. The Superstar DM-507 is my go-to. https://www.ebay.com/itm/3050474478...adANq91JSiEEnz8EGqPJRBloTgEyaVsBoCtoMQAvD_BwE $12.99 + .99 cent shipping.
