            I am told by my QGIS installation of 2.18 on Ubuntu 16.04
            that it is not a valid source.  Anyone else have this
            problem and/or can get it to work?  <br>
            <br>
            1) add vector<br>
            2) change source type to protocol<br>
            3) encoding is set to win 1532<br>
            4) protocal type geojson <br>
            5)geoson feed url<br>
