Just minutes ago, I heard Capcom mention that the ISS was going into an
LOS, and that they would resume their conversation, once they were out of
the LOS.

As far as I can see, there are 10 TDRS satellites distributed fairly
evenly, so that there should be no LOSes.

Why are they still talking about LOSes?

LOSes are needed to give the flight control team a break to go to the
bathroom and get a cup of coffee :-)
