FT-1000MP and KAM+

[Steve Ellington]

My one week old MP came with an Errata (goof) correction paper in the
manual. They numbered the Packet jack wrong. It should be, as viewed from
the back panel, first pin on the left and going clockwise, pin 1, the pin
4, 2, 5 then 3.  Could that be the problem?
