Yup they've done such a good job of explaining exactly what's going on, live.
It's been interesting to see them improve too. It used to be that the video compression always used to ruin the final moment when the boosters landed at the sea platform. But now, they've even solved that.

From what I've heard, the reason for the signal loss during the landing was the drone ship losing its satellite data uplink from the shaking and interference caused by the landing booster.
