When I was using a SignaLink, I used the RF gain control to keep strong signals from overloading the input to the computer. I would also use the Shift and Width controls to isolate a signal, and got a 250 Hz filter to help. Dropping the RF gain control until the band noise almost disappeared from the waterfall also seemed to improve decoding.

I now use a Tascam US-122 mkII interface. I don't have to adjust the RF gain control at all. YMMV.

Old topic from a Old Newbie.  I have been fooling around with PSK 31 and I
have it set up and working but I do have a question.  Do most ops using
this mode turn off the AGC and then ride the RF gain control because of the
stronger signals in the band pass killing off the weaker signals?

Is that how it is done....or am I missing something

Yes, I have searched Google and could not find a good answer.
