Odd JSONDecodeError generated by API call

[davidrpugh]

The following API call is throwing a JSONDecodeError.

data = pybea.get_data(USER_ID,
                      DataSetName='GDPbyIndustry',
                      Year='2010',
                      Industry=11,
                      TableID='ALL',
                      Frequency=['A', 'Q'],
                      )

Here is the traceback...

The following API call also generates the same type of error.

data = pybea.get_data(USER_ID,
                      DataSetName='UnderlyingGDPbyIndustry',
                      TableID='ALL',
