For digimodes like WSPR I use a Microham Digikeyer and set the K3 Line Out 
level to 10, which 
is the maximum recommended before the possibility of distortion is introduced. 
At this level I have 
to set the Digikeyer RX input control to max to obtain proper decoding etc and 
being at maximum 
leaves no room for further adjustment.

I usually like to set in/out controls to around 50% but in this case it would 
mean setting the K3 
Line Out to around 40 to be able to reduce the Digikeyer input by 50%

So, is Line Out level 10 still the max before distortion/saturation of the 
output transformers occurs 
or is there any headroom. If 10 is still the number then fine, as the object is 
to provide the 
cleanest signal to the DigiKeyer soundcard even if the input does have to be 
set to max.
