Hi David,

Here you find nice INFO how to set USB in PKT mode of FT-1000mp from KN4LF.
It work nice for me too.
Good luck, 73   Bojan S51CN





As far as setting the transceiver up for use of the Packet DIN jack on back 
and the PKT mode button on front:

#1.) Push fast button and hold then the ENT button.
#2.) Select menu item 8-6.
#3.) Using the sub VFO tuning knob go to Easy Set.
#4.) Using the main VFO knob select PS31-u.
#5.) Hit ENT button.
#6.) Press PKT button once and the green LED on the LSB button lights up.
#7.) Press the PKT button a second time and hold for 1 second, you hear a 
beep and Voila you are in USB mode even though the LSB LED remains lit.

You can check that you are indeed in USB by going to 20 meters and tuning 
in a phone signal.
