Google changed its system and broke the website.

It’ll take a while, and in the meantime if you keep the map hidden, the other features will continue to work.
Bummer. And typical for big monopolists. But the RBN dudes provide a link to a worthy alternative:

Me likes. Personal preference: I dislike the color scheme. Some of the colors are very hard to see. And the thing might be bigger. But at least it’s a map. My signal’s footprint at a glance.
