Which of the following is a way to determine whether your satellite uplink power is neither too low nor too high?

When transmitting to an amateur satellite (uplink), it is crucial not to use too much power. If your signal is too strong, it can drain the satellite's batteries or trigger its automatic gain control (AGC), which suppresses the signals of other users trying to use the transponder. The best way to gauge your power is to monitor your own signal coming back on the downlink and compare it to the satellite's continuous telemetry beacon. Your repeated signal should be roughly the same strength as the beacon. Distractors like checking telemetry reports or listening for distortion are incorrect because telemetry doesn't usually report individual user signal strengths in real-time, and distortion doesn't necessarily indicate a power mismatch.
