[WriteLog] Wish: More flexible rotor control

[Eric - VE3GSI]

Also Rick,

In my set-up, the first rotor is physically off north and I have to correct
it in the .ini file. The second rotor is fine, but I have not found a way to
do the correction independently (still looking). 

In the future some sort of radio to rotor mapping may be of use to me as I
am considering a 40 meter dipole or beam on a separate rotor.
