Would some kind soul please explain why the dot frequency values between
47.1405 and 60.6091 (inclusive) result in a frequency of 60.0 being used
internally?  The angle for this to occur is 45 degrees.

I did a little test program that does a set screen and then turn right around
and do a currentscreen to print what the printer is using.

If the angle is 35 degrees, the test goes right through 60 without a problem.
This is using an increment to the frequency of .01 and starting at 59.0.
