Nothing. If you look on the other side of the PCB, you will find the
terminals of that area are shorted together. It is there as an option for
more advanced builders should they need to make the output AC coupled. They
would do this by cutting the track under CX and soldering a capacitor into
the CX spot (probably 100n).
