Sorry for the duplicated message, Richard. The first one didn't have talk on CC.

Which layer are you using? (and the location, if possible)

The layer can be updated in https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Maps to
use no-tile-header and/or no-tile-checksum
See https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Maps#Generalproperties (or open
a ticket, if you possible too)

And as a workaround you can zoom to the maximum level where you see
the tiles, click with the right mouse button and disable "Auto zoom"
