While there have been no changes to Chirp's RepeaterBook query code
for quite some time, you may notice that repeaterbook.com has had a
major design overhaul recently. There is also a message on the home
page about requiring all users to reset their password because they
have implemented a new authentication system. My guess is that they've
also changed the code for the system Chirp queries.

I've asked Garrett a few times for some kind of API reference so I can
make the changes he suggested to Chirp's RepeaterBook query code, but
unfortunately he hasn't gotten back to me.
