I have an RT-21 controller here that functions as it should on another logger. When using this unit with DXbase 2007 all seems to function OK on Long Path move requests but
on Short Path move requests  there is either no movement or there is a movement but
to an incorrect azimuth. I have set the default settings (DCU-1) in the rotor control (number 1) window and activated the rotor control in the rotor options window. Using another logger
that provides a rotor control debug window I see:

Example: Heading SP of 60 degrees.  'AP1060;<cr>AM1;<cr>'
               LP request for same target. 'AP1240;<cr>AM1;<cr>'

Both of the above cause the correct movement. I cannot see what the DXbase
commands are. Maybe I am missing another setting within DXbase?
