Mark, I use my 1000MP with a Yaesu YO-901 Multiscope.

The YO-901 is a monitoring instrument, originally designed for use with the 
FT-901DM series of amateur equipment. Here is a schematic to construct an 
interface that allows the YO-901 to be used with the FT-1000MP. The interface 
provides both TX and RX monitoring. It is in pdf format and you need Acrobat 
reader to open it.

The interface is made from parts readily accessible from Radio Shack 
including the box for less than $5.00.

You also need to construct a cable to connect the TX GND on the back of the 
FT-1000MP or 1000D to the 11 pin female plug at position ACC 2 on the back of 
the YO-901. Using a RCA plug into the TX GND connect the center conductor of 
RCA plug to pin 11 on the 11 pin male plug and connect the outside of the RCA 
plug to pin 8 (ground from the radio) on the 11 pin male plug.

Check out the schematic I have posted at my website.
