RBN connection problems

I am unable to connect to the RBN and display spots in the Grayline map. my settings are as follows:
Server:  telnet.reversebeacon.net:7300
Login:  ZL2APV
Watch for: blank
"Auto connect after open the log" is checked
 
My DX cluster site is zl2arn.dyndns.org:7300 and I wonder if there is a conflict due to both ports being the same? I have tried without the DX Cluster being connected but still no RBN.
The RBN has worked for me in the past but I have not used it for a long time. When starting up the Grayline window shows "Disconnected" briefly and then blank. Clicking on Connect to RBN from the tool button does nothing.
 
Hope someone can help,

Hi Greame,
 
there is a bug in preferences. The default port value should be 7000 not 7300. It's already fixed in source repo.

Thanks Petr and Willy,
 
All going well now and looking forward to watching my spots in the future.
