Thanks God of the Deep Space that the locked loops were not designed by Rigol.

You'll have to make a video on noise temperature.
I tried reading the wiki, but got lost on the second sentence

Best video yet. Excellent job. Video work was also pretty good considering it was you just pointing and shooting.
Thanks.

A big thumbs up!

Yep, seems you can't just shamelessly copy content from the eevblog channel

Indeed, it seems to be MIA. Perhaps they didn't like seeing the same video uploaded(station tour) that was already on another channel.

The control room on JPL is fancier.

It's a shame that both attempts at getting this channel going have failed thus far. 

Could this be due to some automatic YouTube algorithm getting triggered, or is this sort of thing only caused by multiple users flagging a channel? 

Maybe someone has it out for Dave, and controls an army of YouTube channel flagging bots.

Disappointing. I'm teaching astronomy and pointed my students to it. A few saw it before it got shut down, but most of them hadn't. I hope that whatever YouTube managed to screw up, it gets fixed soon.

[madires]

The channel seems to be restored. I can access it without any problems.

[Brumby]

Yes, it's back.

... and even Dave doesn't know why there was a problem.

[rrinker]

 My guess is even YouTube doesn't know why there was a problem.

A simple explanation is that many of the people making decisions at YouTube can't tell their glutes from a hole in the ground.

An engineering explanation is that they're doing adaptive control on their content management system but changing the parametrization of the feedback controller with a frequency too close to the dominant frequency of the outside drivers of the controlled system. As we know, this leads to all sorts of chaotic behaviors, instability and strange attractors.

No. I think it's more likely that many of the people at YouTube don't know what they're doing.
