It depends a bit on your operating style.  I have both the P3 and the 
second RX, and would hate to be without either, but I find the P3 
especially useful.  The second RX lets you HEAR what's on your TX 
frequency when operating split. The P3 lets you SEE the entire pileup 
and think about how to place your call. The P3 also lets you look at the 
bandwidth of various signals, chase RF noise sources, look for activity 
on a dead band (like openings on 6M and 10M), and so on.

If you can only buy one, my first choice would be the P3.
