[Elecraft] Tips on setting transmit drive for PSK31

I'm trying to get my K3 running on PSK31.  Everything seems fine so 
far.  I'm using line in/line out into mic and headphone on my laptop. 
Copy is very good. Transmit drive is touchy and I'm wondering if anyone 
has any tips on setting the correct amount of audio drive. My power is 
set to 20 watts, compression off. Audio gain is 6. Transmit gives me 
about 10 watts or so.  Should I increase gain until I get 20 watts?

Thanks for any input,

PS: UPS just handed me another white box.  Its my third K2 and its 
number 6798. Time to warm up the iron.
