Sure, static crashes cause very weak signals to be suppressed during the AGC
hang, but in moderate noise conditions the intelligibility (copy) seems
easier, at least for me. BTW, my comfort point is to have the threshold up
well past the noise level, 10 dB or so, maybe that needs to be taken into
consideration.
Alas, with almost infinitely configurable AGC, comes almost infinite scope
for controversy.

Yes you are correct. For noisy conditions you want a very fast decay, the
same as pushing the "fast AGC" button on a normal rig. There's all kinds of
fuzzy agc logic floating around these days.
