[GNC] experience using Alpha Vantage

Mostly, no.  I'm getting few mutual fund returns.  But misses are only sporadically logged.  That makes me wonder if stale quotes are being delivered.  But it also makes me wonder if I've been tuned out and am unaware that a secret handshake is now needed.

I don't fetch prices automatically, but typically download around 6 AM.  I also run an Excel spreadsheet that fetches quotes from Refinitiv using the Stocks data type.  That has its own issues as some newer mutual fund tickers aren't recognized.

I have seen it fumble, too, not sure if it is FQ or AA.  Funds do their nav some time after 4 eastern, so I do my quotes on cron at midnight.  This also means the 6 minute run time is not a problem.  But silently lost quotes seems like a bad behavior.  Does the code log when the price fetch fails a AA?  It certainly did with Yahoo!
