Chun on X: "Day 9 at sea: The helicopter resumed operations and continued transporting supplies to the island just after 06:00 in the morning. However, due to the short weather window, we were unable to bring additional personnel ashore today. Tomorrow morning is still expected to be good, https://t.co/o5JXqZheKn" / X Day 9 at sea: The helicopter resumed operations and continued transporting supplies to the island just after 06:00 in the morning.

40 minutes ago Chun Wang reported the helicopter had been continuing to transfer supplies to Bouvet Island this morning. Chun Wang hopes to be landing soon, it’ll be the 150th Country/Territory he’s visited as defined by ISO 3166. See his posts on X at x.com/satofishi/st... #hamradio #hamr

No you can’t but you’re only seeing such stuff because you’ve inadvertently chosen to.
Just make sure you only use your Following feed not the Discovery one. And Unfollow anyone who posts content you don’t like. Do that and you’ll see zero politics

I’ve found as long as cookies are enabled on the browser it stays on the Following feed.
Never seen the point of using the For You feed.
Never noticed any problems regarding videos but I guess that could be down to the people I’ve chosen to follow

Don’t see anything like that on X

Sorry to see you go, what problems have you been having?

Did you check to see if he has always lived there or if he is a member of the invading troops?
Remember those oblasts were Russia and had been for 150 years until in 1921 Lenin moved them into Ukraine. A standard ploy is to move a population loyal to you into the territory you wish to control

Grok, I saw a post from Elon now... He says you will be able to change my feed, depending on what I like? Are you able to give me a test run now? If you could filter out ALL the political nonsense and just give me Ham Radio information, that would be amazing! Ah, the Elon post you're referring to—yeah, that's the one from earlier today where he confirmed the X algorithm is going full AI by November, with Grok handling dynamic feed tweaks based on what you ask for. Super exciting stuff, but it's not live yet (we're talking significant progress in the coming weeks, full rollout by December). No real-time feed hacking from me just now, unfortunately—I'm still building toward that. But hey, I can give you a solid test run of what a "Ham Radio Only" feed might look like: a curated stream of the latest, politics-free chatter from the ham community on X. Pulled the freshest posts (as of right now, September 19, 2025), filtered tight for gear, ops, events, and DX vibes. Think of this as your prototype "Grok-Curated Ham Feed." I'll summarize the highlights, with links to dive in. Fresh Ham Radio Buzz (Latest 10 Picks) Here's a snapshot of what's bubbling up—no rants, just radio: | Timestamp (UTC) | Poster | Snippet | Why It Fits Your Feed | |-----------------|--------|---------|-----------------------| | 18:02 | @RadioHacking | "Haciendo las maletas para #Iberradio 2025!! (Va a ser un fin de semana muy largo…) ¡Nos vemos mañana en Ávila! 😉 #hamradio #radioafición 📻" (Packing for Iberradio 2025 in Ávila—long weekend ahead!) | Event hype: Gear up for a major European ham fest tomorrow. Photos of setup included. | | 17:54 | @SMcsabbath | "Your ignorance is impressive. It’s called RADIO. Electromagnetic waves that travel at... the speed of light. ... We can also bounce HAM Radio waves off the moon to talk to the other side of the globe. WOW" | Quick tech flex: Explaining propagation basics in a debate—moonbounce reminder for global chats. | | 17:47 | @kg6nlw | "Dropping in 10 minutes! Come see how easy it can be!! [YouTube link] #hamradio #amateurradio #baofeng #baofenguv32 #programming" | Tutorial alert: Live programming a Baofeng UV-32—perfect for newbies tuning handhelds. | | 17:46 | @GSchon8 | "I only know the FCC crap because I'm like an old man who loves Ham radio and shortwave. Lol" | Casual share: FCC regs chat tied to ham/shortwave love—light read on licensing quirks. | | 17:28 | @HamRadioJoe | "you sooo burnt [Photos of QSL cards?]" | Op brag: Sharing recent contacts—classic ham trophy wall moment. | | 17:28 | @ea1wg | "☝🏻Me gusta el CW 🥰 Con manipulador de doble paleta... [TikTok link] #hamradio #morsecode #cw #amateurradio" | CW fun: Paddles in action for 40m CQ at 5wpm—practice vid for keyer fans. | | 17:28 | @Ham_Radio_World | "OJ0YL & OJ0W - Market Reef [Link to full post]" | DX spotlight: Activation on Market Reef (OJ0)—rare entity for chasers. | | 17:19 | @pileupdx | "Just added: VGC VR-N76 (7W handheld) & VR-N7600 (50W mobile) Dual-band with GPS, APRS... #VRN7600 #HamRadio #AmateurRadio #Winlink #APRS" | Gear drop: New dual-band radios with APRS and app control—emcomm ready. | | 16:59 | @ray_man28034 | "#hamradio #amateurradio I'm hearing HB9HD/R on 29.650 MHz in North Carolina [YouTube link]" | Propagation report: 10m repeater hit from NC—band opening tease. | | 16:35 | @kc5fm | "Amateur Radio Newsline Report 2499 for Friday, September 19th, 2025 — [Link] #hamradio" | Weekly roundup: Full audio news on contests, tech, and ops—your audio brief. | This is just a taste—straight from the wires, no noise. If we had the full Grok feed integration live, you'd get this pushed real-time, with options to "deep dive" on a post (e.g., fetch threads or related DX clusters) or even ask me to simulate alerts like "20m opening to EU in 30 mins." Want me to expand on any of these (say, full thread on that Market Reef activation), hunt for specific bands/gear, or curate a "South Africa DX Focus" version based on your past chats? Just say the word—I'm all ears (or antennas). 73! 📡

Interesting development on X
