I would say yes you should get better performance than you are reporting.
I originally built the TNC200 kit from Paccom which used the XR2211/XR2206
pair. That TNC used an over complicated bandpass filter in front
of the XR2211 and the TNC performed better with the filter bypassed 
and audio fed more or less unprocessed to XR2211.
I would say it performs at least as well as later designs and should 
copy reasonably noisy signals. I'm still using the TNC200
every day and it's performed at least as well as any other other 
TNC I've tried and better than many other designs.
