No more Shango066 (stupid youtube BS)

- As of very early this morning, youtube member Shango066's youtube channel was deleted and the only reason given was some vague computer generated email. I'm sure most of you have watched his videos on vintage electronics, and other subjects, and I'd like to thank Shango066 for all the hard work he put into his videos. It's a terrible shame that all this hard work went out the window around 1:30 this morning. After this video, my channel may get deleted because - "how dare you go against the system."

This was one of the darkest days in UA-cam history, luckily they came to their senses.
I'm glad that his channel is up again, I enjoy watching his videos.
Same here
Shago066's channel is back up on UA-cam.
I don't have MySpace and Facebook anymore because I got tired of the social media B/S
Hi Folks,
I want to thank Shango066 for his awesome videos which were really unique and a pleasure to watch.
Shango066's videos gave me so much knowledge about handling and repairing vintage electronics. I am more focused on vintage computers, but sometimes I also look into TVs and CRT monitors. Watching the videos helped me a lot to understand CRT technology much better.
I feel sad and shocked about that all this is now lost.
regards.
Philipp
UA-cam is no longer a community forum.
99% or more of the videos on youtube are basically crap. There's tons of videos showing people blowing up old TV sets or other things. The copyright thing is getting way out of hand. They are so worried about some schmuck like me might make a few cents or something by using a particular song (not today's crap they actually call music", but older stuff. I've watched peoples videos where they play records all the way through and their still on youtube. We as a nation are getting too suspicious over everyone else, can't trust anyone anymore. Maybe the terrorists have won?
That was one of my favorite subscriptions. Shango ran a fascinating channel. I loved all the urban and mineshaft explores, the desert hikes, forgotten mining shacks and remote locations in the California outback as well as the vintage radio and TV tech videos. And let's not forget those undercover estate sales. I just found this out today. I think we've lost one of the greatest channels on UA-cam.
I bet he was turned in by some lowlife Crosley lover who didn't appreciate that backyard Crosley BBQ. That's a Shango066 classic.
How about the angry old woman who called 9-1-1 on him when he BBQ'd a pink Disney TV (the 4th July Brexit EOL)?
Some people are way too uptight and anal-retentive.
And I'm listening to this in 2021, and you called it right on, seven years ago!
Well I just came across this mate and appreciate you telling us , however I just heard his channel is back up , I really enjoy his work and the humour he puts into it all has got me through some difficult times having once qualified in radio TV and electronic mechanics myself in 1979 and having moved into the mining industry as an underground electrician it is work I enjoy following having had a change of direction myself . God bless ya shango066 from the UK. And rgds radiotvphononut
What a tragic loss to all his subscribers. His videos along with yours, are the best vintage electronic repair videos on UA-cam. I wish I knew how to contact him so I lend him some support. This is DESPICABLE!!
Hey guys sorry to hear about Shango066. I've enjoyed his videos for many years. I'm also a ham radio operator like him. Hope things will change in the future. Please Radiotvphononut keep the vintage electronics coming. 73's Dave from Massachusetts.
This echos my favorite shango quote :
" for the sake of stupidity "
I agree with you, this copyright circus is pulled too far. What a bummer, if you can't even make electronics fix videos, what else going to be censored, if not already? Is the whole planet turning to North Korea or Soviet Union type dump? They even didn't give a reason for a delete, that's just sick.
You now have a new subscriber. I enjoy Shango very much. I truly hope he can get this situation resolved. Best wishes to you both.
This is absolute BS! I've enjoyed and learned a lot from Dan's videos, over the years. This is not fair but typical of youtube.
If Dan should start using another format, please let me know.Thanks, Joe
And as well, thank you radiotvphononut for your videos as well, informative and entertaining !
They are probably jealous of our talents in being able to bring these awesome electronics back to life. Hope they don't take down my channel next for working on electronics, tube equipment!
i am 65,, you guys keep up saving these old radios ,they are better made than this new junk they sell
I can't live without Shango066 video please youtube bring back Shango066 we need him youtube not the same without him. Shango066 you will be miss.
sorry to hear about this I really enjoy watching these videos on vintage radioes I have learned a lot thanks guys!!
I loved his channel and looked forward to seeing new vids from Shango066. This copyright BS is one reason I don't really post vids of my vintage electronics, car radio collection, and my DIY electronics. I'm afraid that if I post something with media playing on it, Gestapo will shutdown my channel. :-/
I can't, for the life of me, figure out who wins from a situation like this. His subscribers lose. He loses. UA-cam loses, too, whether they are aware of it, or, not. Maybe all they want, is the flavor of the month, brain dead, going to be gone in a minute pop culture junk they hype up. Instead of a video you could possibly learn from, be actually entertained by, or, be a medium for keeping the memory of a bygone time, a long gone artist, a pioneering technology, alive. I won't lie, if and when it happens to me and I suspect it will, I'll miss it and miss the interaction with the people I've come to know. But, hey, if the preferred content is, which celeb nominates who for the ice bucket challenge, or who is twerking, or, whatever the latest fleeting "thing" is, I'd rather be counted out anyway. Thanks for passing this along, Bryan.
You can't keep a good UA-camr like shango066 down. Thanks to him, I've learned a lot, including new words to describe objects or components that don't have a proper name.
After giving what happened to Shango066 much thought, I've decided to begin moving my videos elsewhere.
The reason I opened this account was to comment on shango's & rtpnut's videos. I used to perform component level electronic servicing years ago, and both your videos bring back old memories. I was going to eventually post some content, but I don't believe I'll bother now. I think what might have gotten shango the axe was comments about him monetizing his channel, saying he hated commercials, and some comments that sounded like ( i repeat again sounded like) he would be interested in people sending in items and paying to have video repairs made. ( Did I mention that I said it sounded like that's what he was suggesting.) I believe this is what brought the wrath of google. They want alllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll the money. Anyway shango, you love making the videos, don't stop. Googletube isn't the only game in town. Go to vimeo or some other foreign hosted video service. I'm sure rtpnut would be happy to post the link to you new place. Let us know. I'll be there!
RF Burns Well, many people do something similar to that. Keith Fenner and Mr Pete222 as an example. I don't think that was it, bet it was some ridiculous copyright trip or a vandal flagging.
Thank you for the information, I am also WTF about this! If he gets a new channel somewhere (dailymotion or somewhere) I'd love to know so I can continue watching his stuff!
What a bunch of BS!!!
I've been watching his videos for a while now and have NEVER seen anything even remotely objectionable.
Sounds like the "fine" folks at UA-cam are overreacting to a bunch of nonsense.
sorry to see you go Shango thinks for all you have done. and think you radiotvphononut for giving us the new on what happened and think you for everything you do as well.
Thank you for sharing, learned so much from you and shange 066. Keep posting old electronice
If we, all his subscribers, just inundate UA-cam with complaints about this. Perhaps we can get his account re-established. That is, if he still wants to continue... Please keep us informed.
This is not the first time I've heard of this exact situation happening. About 2-months ago it happened to a member of the Antique Radio Forum. He also had no idea why it happened and was afforded no appeal. The bottom line is it's just life in the UA-cam fast lane.
That being said...it's possible Shango recently deleted a Google+ account he no longer wanted. If so, that might be what caused his difficulty. Also if so, he could try this:
Contact UA-cam support.
See this article: support.google.com/youtube/answer/55759
At the bottom it provides this link: Request to restore a recently deleted UA-cam channel

Sometimes we wonder what to upload in our channel without having to deal with youtube copyright crap.
" This account has been suspended due to multiple or severe violations of UA-cam's policy against spam, gaming, misleading content, or other Terms of Service violations."
Thank you for the information and I'll pass it along to him.
Rob,
Google+ is linked to UA-cam. Lose Plus and lose all.

John
This is huge shame, really disappointed in UA-cam. You can watch children getting bullied at school, people getting beat up, shot, flattened by vehicles, eaten by sharks or whatever and those videos seem 'OK' (at least according to UA-cams vision of the world). But damn you if you have 10 seconds of an obscure 1935 music recording in the background. Bryan, please pass on my best wishes to Shango and thank him for all the interesting stuff, both electric repairs and visits to old mines, he's posted. If he doesn''t make it back, I'm going to miss his sense of humour which has had me laughing out loud.
Regards - Andrew
You damn right.......that's just ridiculous with this copyright mania! :-(
Thanks for the info. Google is nuts. Maybe it was the songs that were playing when he tested the working radios?
You know, UA-cam may think they are the only game in town, but they are not. Maybe some of us should start uploading to other venues, and when we're comfortable in our new home, tell Google/UA-cam to *bleep* off...en mass.
Hey there. (1) I just wanted to let you know that I really enjoy all of your videos on record players, radios, tape decks, etc.. (2) Have you yet done any youtube videos on old video tape decks? If not, do you think you can release a youtube video on video tape decks? (3) I think shango066 should continue to release youtube videos? I'd like to know if there's still any way I can still view any of his videos. Please let me know either way. Thank you!
Shango066 is still here. Went away for a while when this video was made but now he's here, as he has been for a while. Watched a new video of his a couple days ago, it was on a 92 Ford Explorer that he had gotten.
Please let Shango I loved the heck out of his videos, and thank him for me, for some really good informative videos !
no, you're making ALL the sense, sir. Stay gold... Shango066 is back in the game, but just thought I'd say, since net-neutrality is about to take a major crap under the wealthy and selfish, what are they gonna have for content anymore?? nothing but "We got all the money and the stuff, congrats, us" -no talent, they don't work, except raking in money and shutting art out. Not going to be a very interesting web at all after they get ahold of it, it'll just be like automatic radio and the Fox News Muppet Show 365-days a year, maybe on leap days they'll dust their transistors off and fart around in the yard? They're shooting themselves in the feet with this dog filth.
Total bummer.
btw i love your channel,and with all respect we havent lived in a free country in awhile.
In reality, you are correct. I should have said, "we're supposed to live in a free country."
radiotvphononut Free country?? Hah!! This has turned into an Obamaunist country!!
January 20, 2017 that eight year nightmare all changes! I understand Cuba has an opening for a Dictator...maybe Obama can apply for the job?
Richard Cline you are totally insane. You probably thought Reagan was a great president too you ignorant turf.
One of the best!
Shamgo066 is back,
YAAAY!
I love Vintage Multi Band Radios....I watched both of Yr Videos....I enjoy seeing the sets
I don't understand. this is April 9th 2017 and I spent all night watching shango's videos. did he get his account back? because all his videos seem to be up here.
Just come across this video it states it is 8 years old .... Man I'm thankful Shango's channel is back on. It makes my week and weekend watching and listening and learning from this man. Keep up the great work Shango we love your channel and all that you do. Radiotvphononut thanks for sharing this 8 years later
Really rare. I had some limitations in my account because of copyright on music, but close it directly? that sucks ...
I need Shango066 it hard not seeing his video anymore I do not know what to do anymore.
death to flaggers, damn i wish my caps lock key wasn't broken
This is indeed sad news on a number of levels. I've been a subscriber of Shango for a long time and have always enjoyed his videos. His recent ones involving 'early' semiconductors have been particularly interesting to me. In my view he always paid attention to the copyright thing so I can't believe that's the reason his channel was cancelled. The fact that no meaningful explanation was given and there is no appeal process is especially worrying and brings it home that we are all exposed to the same risk. Luckily I have copies of most of my clips and since I have a vimeo account I think I'll start uploading there as well just in case. Please pass my good wishes to Shango and I hope we can find a forum to share and learn without having this sword over our heads all the time.
Cheers, John
I'm grateful for shango066 and to find this video long after whatever happened because Shango066 adds greatly to the wealth of content for us all the enjoy on UA-cam and he's been back as long as I've known about him and I love his videos and thanks radiotvphononut for your solidarity to one of the best youtube uploaders. It wouldn't have been the same without him.
Thank you Very much, I 100 percent agree with you!!! I freaking LOVE his channel and you'res! They have no right to tell us what to do on here!!! Just keep doing what you are doing mate!
thank goodness he is back shango066 is a great need to you tube and he is smart a fun person to watch and you learn a great deal from him, as well as all the people posting on you tube glad to see he is back and all the best to you and all the others on here that share there talents and skill and vintage gear
Nothing is more aggravating than stupid bureaucratic crap like that! I do hope that Shango066 will try to get his channel back -- I really enjoyed his videos, as I do yours. I've learned a great deal from these two channels, as well as a few others.
What could he possibly have done? I think it's a mistake, honestly. I've watched a LOT of his videos and I've never seen anything that would violate copyrights or would be spam-like or scam-like. Yes, he voices his opinions from time to time -- but how the hell is that against the rules?! F****** ridiculous that UA-cam would just trash all his hard work -- YEARS worth of work! Annoys me greatly -- and I can't even imagine how angry Shango066 must be! I hope me manages to get UA-cam to realize they've made a mistake, and restore his channel...
I miss Shango066 He was so cool and funny, a great personality that will sadly be missed.
Please let us know what the real reason for Shango066's channel deletion, if you ever find out. I certainly never saw any "commercial" or "spam" activity on his channel. I really did not find him that political either. Is this really over copyright? I guess when we play youtube's game, we play it to their rules, at our own risk. What a shame. Still, UA-cam owes shango a better explanation for this action considering the amount of effort he has put into his channel. I found his videos entertaining, and really appreciated his ability to troubleshoot complicated things with simple methods. I learned a lot from him. The EOL videos meant nothing to me, but do not bother me either.
Can you tell shango that I could make him a website with all his videos. Of course if he wants to. :)
It looks like shango066 is back in business. His channel is up and running....yeah!!!!
probably that time we were in the truck listening to funk in the middle of the dessert.
I too have watched shango66 and haven't witnessed any content which justifies suspending his account. As an electronic technician I found his content very informative and educational.
This is horrible. It makes me just sick. Shango is one of the guys you look forward to their next video. It is a pity.

UA-cam say "No more soup for you."
Jeez, this is such a total bummer. The irony of this is that when Google first started up, it's motto was: "Don't be Evil". But now that they have gotten big and arrogant those days are over. There was nothing violating any TOSs on Shango066's channel, this is such BS.
I so much appreciate the time and effort that Shango066 and others have given to the old radio and TV community. We are being choked by rules, regulations and litigation. You Tube and Ebay were great things before they yielded to the PC crybabies and lawyers. Thanks go out to you guys and I hope this does not discourage others from posting.

I have been watching your channel and Shango066 for 2-3 months and was not aware that Shango066 ever had his account disabled. Your videos on repairing old record players has made me want to make a video about my Sears belt-drive turntable that I got as a late Christmas present in January 1983. It still works and isn't the highest-end turntable but it has the adjustable counterweight and anti-skate control and the ability to put different kinds of cartridges on it (currently one that is tracking at 1.625 grams in the middle of its recommended range). You know what my main problem is? What the hell would I play on it to demonstrate it? Anything I choose might get me a copyright strike. It's a real problem for people who want to talk about audio or video equipment. I'm amazed that a low-fidelity version picked up by a microphone is enough to trigger it because you would think the loss in fidelity would keep it from happening. It shows that they have some pretty sophisticated algorithms in place to recognize songs (probably similar to what the SoundHound and Shazam phone apps have, making them able to recognize songs despite ambient noise and lower fidelity).
Maybe he could offer DVD of all videos so the wealth of knowledge will not be lost. That would be a great lost if that was not available.
It is sad that UA-cam and failbook has to pull this crap I like Shango's videos the guy is funny he makes my day thank you for sharing this video
What a bummer, I don't understand why Shango066 account is disabled/deleted. He doesn't spam, and provides very informative and great video's with radio and TV repairs.
These has to be a system fault somewhere. He has spend thousands of hours of work into making his channel interesting. Every new video was a TV show to look forward too. I hope it was an accidental error and can be reversed. Shango066 should get an apology when this is sorted. There should be an exact reason given why this happened.
RODALCO2007 the UA-cam system in all its ways is terrible for many craeters, its always been, whether videos get demonitized or channels get shut down or there are copyright strikes with no reason
This is really too bad. I enjoyed watching Shango's videos, the ones about electronics just as much as the ones about abandoned buildings.
meh, this is bad news. I bet it was about copyright violations. I presume Google does tag every video automatically based on the scanned content and some sophisticated to wonky algorithms. If any employee was then about to evaluate a channel, all that shows up are videos tagged with content from TV and radio stations and some snippets of music. I would be surprised if during an evaluation somebody took even closer look at the content.
What a bummer. really.
Wow... This is Unimaginable, I don't understand that. I'm actually a big electronics fan, and if I were him I would be in total disbelief.
Deleting his account was BS. That wasn't right. If Fox did that, it was ridiculous. I really have never seen anything in all the videos he produced that would come close to copyright infringement. Thank you for posting this Bryan.
Has Shango066 got his channel back as of 12/20/2015?
+Alpha1545 Yes.
Really enjoyed his videos very much. Was hoping to get home to another epic and this is what we got. They are into far too much on you tube and all, most definatly. It was a blast man. Thanks for the bye bye, will miss you here. I wonder if Vimeo is any better. Everyone of my videos has strikes. Is there another way to connect with you guys?.
Im 11 years old and almost 12 and i love his videos and im a electronicion as well i take apart tvs,speakers,old tvs,and old speakers,
Did he try using "Daily Motion"?
As far as I know they are not owned by Google.
we had a friend over for dinner, he said he knew someone working in that group that monitors youtube videos for copyright issues,.I live in north hollywood, maybe I can find out more about what they do.
He is back on. They sent him another letter that says after further review they found no violations on his part so they restarted his account as of a week ago
So much has changed on YT that it's just not fun anymore. I have a total disdain for having to be tied with other social media sites. I could give two shits less about google+, facebook and every other horse shit site! They've made navigating YT just so much more difficult today. It's just no more fun for old farts like me. At some point I hope another site opens up for uploading videos with fewer restrictions. Unfortunately in this litigious world that's unlikely to happen. This COULD have been a great site to teach and to learn from others.
www.vimeo.com "The high-quality home for ad-free HD videos". There's a few out there, just not very much content.
How was this resolved?
Back up _all_ your videos you find the most valuable on an external/second hard drive and online storage services, so that if your account gets removed, you can re-upload it. Right now it's most important you do this, because fake companies go around and DMCA claim random videos, because they get a sick kick out of it. And UA-cam's system is absolutely *horrendous*, as it allows this to happen. Also, be wary of uploading copyrighted stuff. They don't actually monitor it, they just compare the waveforms of videos, then compare them to their libraries of copyrighted music, when there is a match, it gets deleted, or they put the song name on it and generate money by placing ads on your video. There needs to be a change in the DMCA, as it was made *years* before sites like UA-cam came around.
That's a glitch he's back. I saw one of his video explaining that for the best quality he uploaded the raw camera files then used the UA-cam video editor to combine multiple raw camera files to one video. But the raw camera videos was locked in private until it became disproportionately large compared to his public videos until UA-cam's highly automated system detects it and misidentified as spam and automatically suspend his account. UA-cam don't allow their system to be use as storage.
Shannon 066 videos are still on line I watched it last night
I went thru the procedure to request Shango066's return. I let them know how pissed I was and if, nothing else, they need to explain themselves!
I found Shangos channel before I found this one. Which, I enjoy with a few other channels, are my favorites.
And let me tell you something. You, Shango, and a few others have Better entertainment than anything on free tv. Or even pay-tv.
This fits the profile of sudden copyright strikes. Lots of controversy has came to the light in recent days from various youtubers who complain about how the fair use laws can be ignored by companies and how wicked youtube's copyright system is.
Yes, you can suddenly get a strike on an old video. If you get one, you are set back to uploading 15 min. You can appeal the strike and the company has a month to respond, if else, the strike expires. If for whatever reason you happen to get three active strikes at once, you're out. Even if they were mistaken.
Very disappointing to hear this. Great channel, watched nearly all of his videos. He will be missed.
Aladdin on that CRT monitor
I remember one of Shango066's videos, one might have been about an RCA converter that had to have capacitors replaced.
There's a really confusing phenomena going on here. I watch Shango, he works on old radios, TV's . I'm confused , there are two broadcasters with the same name?
He is back online!!
I hope "Shango066" might come back to UA-cam soon as "Shango066Returns", "Shango066isBack", "Shango066Revisited" or whether the three that I just want to pick, and maybe they would not get anymore copyright stuff like UMG, WMG, SME, etc. For example the song used in Disney films, Disneyland & Buena Vista albums and Disney theme parks are owned by UMG.
There are other sites he can post on I would gladly sub to so I could watch his antics.
i dont beleive this bullshit. the guy done radio repairs. he was also careful to not stay on a tune too long incase the copyright machines caught him. he was in my top 3 tubers. loved his vids. im still learning electronics and he taught me alot and led me to this great chanel. im going to send an email off to youtube to complain.
agreed i am learning electronics too i done a transformer replacement for this alarm clock which is rated at the USA 110V to a 240V australian voltage transformer with the same output voltage well at least we got radiotvphononut!
He obviously got reinstated as I've been watching his videos today.
I wonder if it's from him going into the Mall, and the other mines etc. Maybe they see it as trespassing and THATS what the issue is.....
How can you get a copyright strike for playing music that is otherwise obtainable for free by listening to the radio? What else is he going to test it with? I thought that the problem with playing someone else's song and posting it online is piracy. Why isn't listening to the radio considered piracy? Either way, the listener obtains a song for free via advertisements, and honestly, "ThemTube" plays more ads than the radio stations. Anyway, as for shango066, i damn well hope he can at least get access to his own videos to upload them elsewhere, such as vimeo, possibly reupload to youtoob or atleast have them as an archive of his work. Its like recording a video and then having the camera corrupt the video (they always do), but instead of 5 minutes of lost video, it is more like 5 years worth of hard work down the crapper! Hang in there shango066, I am sure you can contact POOgle to at least get private access to your videos. Good luck buddy! I hope you can recover it all!
This sucks! If All he did was tune around the dial sometimes and now there is no more cool console TV pickups, HF alignments with the scope, same manal, abandoned buildings, cheap Disney or any of the fun things he shows.
To whoever might not already know, Shango066 is back!
II was just recently introduced to Shango! This is beyond belief. For background noise!
What a bunch of Horse S&^% . We need to send youtube Many many emails to Put Shango back on the air. I've learned a lot from both shango and you.
They make money off each and everyone of us,whether we get a cent or not ! All the best to Shango.
That really sucks....sure will miss Shango066..
