If the AGC is working, you will not be able to easily perceive if the signals are weaker one one versus the other.

You need to compare the level of a given signal versus the noise level adjacent to that signal. It is best to do this with the AGC shut off. 

Compare the two Omni 5’s and determine what the noise level is on both with given pot settings and then tune to a weak signal and compare again.
