[GNC] Get Quotes Fails from GnuCash

I am a newish user running GC (3.3) on Windows 10.

I have set up the quotes apps so that I can pull quotes from bthe command
line (i.e., gnc-fq-dump).  Until about a week ago, I could also update
quotes from GC.

Now, it is failing regularly, but with various error messages:
- sometimes it fails immediately with an "unknown error"
- sometimes it is "Unable to retrieve quotes for these items: ..."
- other times, it will simply hand

I turned on some debugging, but I can't make sense of it.  Here is an
example line:

* 10:41:23 DEBUG <gnc.scm> results: ((SWPPX (symbol . SWPPX)
(gnc:time-no-zone . 2018-10-28 09:25:50) (last . 41.58) (currency . USD))
(UN (symbol . UN) (gnc:time-no-zone . 2018-10-28 09:25:50) (last . 54.01)
(currency . USD)) (ETN (symbol . ETN) (gnc:time-no-zone . 2018-10-28
09:25:50) (last . 72.01) (currency . USD)) (EWJ (symbol . EWJ)
(gnc:time-no-zone . 2018-10-28 09:25:50) (last . 53.97) (currency . USD))
(ABBV (symbol . ABBV) (gnc:time-no-zone . 2018-10-28 09:25:50) (last .
80.79) (currency . USD)))

It looks like it worked, but it ]says it couldn't find the quotes.

Here's another example:

* 09:36:41 DEBUG <gnc.scm> ALPHAVANTAGE_API_KEY=<xxxx>
* 09:36:41 DEBUG <gnc.scm> handling-request: (alphavantage ESRX VUSUX VEXPX
DXJ STT ABT CVS)
* 09:36:41 DEBUG <gnc.scm> results: Invalid
...
* 09:36:26 DEBUG <gnc.scm> ALPHAVANTAGE_API_KEY=<xxx>
* 09:36:26 DEBUG <gnc.scm> handling-request: (alphavantage ESRX VUSUX VEXPX
DXJ STT ABT CVS)
* 09:36:26 DEBUG <gnc.scm> results: date

Any ideas?
