Not sure I'm following exactly what you are doing - difficult to know without seeing the commands and parameters. TEXT TO BLOB and Blob to text both allow you to specify the character set.
If you are using SEND PACKET with a blob you created using TEXT TO BLOB, there should be no problem converting it back via DOCUMENT TO BLOB and then Blob to text. If you are using text with SEND PACKET, you have to be sure to USE CHARACTER SET.
