I always have my slow AGC set to 40, and I use it almost exclusively in contests. Particularly I use it to hold the higher level of the loudest station calling in a pileup on the monotonic muddle that is lemmings all calling exactly on a spot frequency. But I just need it to hang about a word space on CW, and about a syllable on SSB. Fast AGC on CW makes the monotonic lemming muddle far worse.
