We made some test with Robot 24 (OZ2MA) and Robot 72 (DK3WN) this morning.

That looks like KO6TZ's picture. I've seen it many times ! 

And it does NOT take too much audio to make the MMSSTV work. I can turn the
volume down on my radio to where I can just hear it on the speaker, and
that's enough.  Louder is OK, as long as you don't crank it up where it's
all distorted.
