That's a key point as not everyone understands that less audio is better on PSK and most folks tend to hit the audio hard on both TX and RX. The resulting IMD is shown as 'echoes' on the waterfall and it tends to bang on the soundcard AGC, potentially blocking the signal you want to hear.
For non-Elecraft gear, adjust to *just* when the ALC is starting to get tickled, then back off a titch. For Elecraft, make the fifth ALC bar blink (this changes with the actual tone used) and go no higher. Of course you can use the data modes with the K(X)3 instead.
