Julian suggests running a bar of ALC - I very strongly disagree. Never, ever 
run any ALC with PSK as it degrades the quality of the signal and makes 
decoding more difficult.

With digital modes *always* aim for a 100% linear signal. It's not the power 
but the quality / purity that matters. What may look good on the other 
station's waterfall is not always the best for decoding.

It's not just what you transmit but what you don't transmit that matters.
