I see very few if any signals on the band that exceed -28 to -30 dB IMD on
the receive end. If you get a signal report that your IMD is -15 to -20 dB
then one should consider that there is a problem with the configuration and
or transmitter.
We are speaking of typical of PSK-31 IMD levels being -25 dB down from 30
watts, not 100 watts.

FWIW, -25 dB is not that great. 25dB down from 100 watts is 0.25
watts, enough to QRM a weak signal.
