[Elecraft] Volumn from K3S USB interface

I have installed the KIO3BUPKT in my K3 and am generally quite 
satisfied with it. During the weekend RTTY contest, I noticed 
that I was getting very low audio volumes coming into my 
MacIntosh when the AGC was engaged (both in fast and slow 
modes). I tried to find how to adjust the volume in the K3S 
manual, but only found the procedure by reading all the CONFIG 
items in the back of the manual. The LIN OUT setting does the job.

The manual warns that values higher than 10 may result in 
overdrive of the soundcard or saturation of the KIO3’s 
isolation transformers. I found a setting of 40 seemed to work well.

Am I the only one driving the USB this hard?
