[WriteLog] Fw: M2 Orion OR-2800 Rotor

More troubleshooting....

I hooked the rotor port to another port and monitored the data...

Looks like Writelog is not sending a carriage return when the heading is
sent.

All that is send is the heading. Albeit 1, 2, or 3 digits long. The rotor
will respond to 1, 2, or 3 digit directions. But it MUST have a carriage
return to act on the heading sent.

Any ideas?
Thanks and 73
