Seems kinda weird what RemoteTech does here.

Has anyone else seen this?

I mis-engineered my communication satellites by putting not nearly enough batteries.  Every time they are eclipsed by Kerbin or Mun, they shut down for a second.  OK,  My bad, It gets weird when they all three seem to be shut down because I never switched back to "fly" them.

I even went back to look in the Space center and all three appeared to be dead.  When I "flew" them again in the sun, The connections reappeared for each.  Is this a bug?

When the first satellite goes down, is it the one that has the root connection to KSC? It's hard to tell from your screenshots as you don't display the red dot of KSC.
