[1000mp] Menu 8-6 PKT-USB

[Ron Walters]

Some Background

FT1000MP (Vintage-old) Only runs on PKT LSB without some 8-6 settings

Have some digital software that only runs USB, want to take advantage of 
Digital input plug on the back.

Reviewed the MARS modification for older rigs that changes menu 8-6 for 
PSK USB High tomes 2125Hz

Want to use PKT-USB low tones 1070Hz

Reviewing the MARS mod - As detailed on the VA3 FT1000MP site

Menu 8-6

Mode =   PKT-LSB
DSP offset     =  +2.125
RX-PLC  =  +2.210
RX-CAR =  452.790
TX-PLL =  +2.210
TX-CAR =  452.790 *** Can use 456.300 for pre-lot #05 which is my rig 
(Can not set lower)

Hit "ENT" and it correctly stores, check user and can hear USB signals OK

NOW to set it to low tones I want to use 8-6 as follows and would 
appreciate a sanity check from someone else, they are:

Mode =   PKT-LSB
DSP offset     =  +1.070
RX-PLC  =  +1.255
RX-CAR =  453.930
TX-PLL =  +1.255
TX-CAR =  453.930 *** Can use 456.300 for pre-lot #05 which is my rig 
(Can not set lower)

Hit "ENT" and it correctly stores, check user and can hear USB signals OK

I have called a few CQ's on PSK on 20 meters but so far no takers, I am 
going to try it again tonight (8-2-05 GMT) and see what happens, 
however, anyone see any problems?  Appreciate feedback, thanks in 
advance for your thoughts
