On the other hand if you were going to buy both new it
would make more $ sense to buy two Orion?s. Then you
would have both a spare TX and two really decent
general coverage RX's to boot.

565/340 = 1 TX + 3 RX (2 general coverage and 1 ham
band only)

565/565 = 2 TX + 4 RX (2 general coverage and 2 ham
band only)

So with two Orion?s you actually get an extra TX and
RX. If top notch SWL performance is the main
requirement then yes the RX-340 looks to be the better
choice.
