An increase in power of another station is not always well perceived but the
difference is there.  I've heard guys turn amps on and off and 
you really hear no difference    this is   because your AGC is 
compensating.    the difference may actually be big  your just not 
hearing it.
Sometime in a QSO  have the other station increase or decrease the 
signal by 3db.   it will not be that noticable.   now turn off AGC and 
 ask the other station do it again  it will be much more evident. than with
AGC on.


With more than one signal present say in a pileup the different will be
noticeable because the weaker signals will seem quiter when a strong signal
comes in. its all relative.
