Dennis I'd consider the following minor tweaks to your AGC settings: HLD 0.20 AGS-S 040
Most importantly, set your RF Gain back so that the S-meters rest above the residual noise floor (including clicks, phase noise, etc). Once RF Gain is set, then adjust AF Gain to suit your ears/headphones. I would definitely try to find some pileups before the contest to confirm your AGC settings are not too slow for reasonable recovery in fast-paced exchanges. I would also not be using QSK. Of course you can try changing any of your settings during the contest to eliminate/induce mush. 73 & GL!
