AGC THR=2 causes the AGC to engage sooner, in effect this sounds to the
ear like turning down the RF gain reducing background noise. Reduced RF
gain always helps when the signal is strong enough.

Actually, I think it is the opposite.  A lower threshold engages the AGC
sooner, which tends to make signals and background noise the same
volume, thus reducing S/N ratio.

Instead, run the threshold higher so that you can preserve some of the
dynamic range between signals and band noise.
