Why two general coverage? Are you planning on running dual receive  
using both Main & Sub? If your just buying GC to allow you to listen  
to broadcasts outside the Ham frequencies, then surely one will be  
sufficient?
Again, are you expecting to need to listen to AM on both receivers, or  
even FM?

Personally, I'd go (I went) for 400Hz, 1.8kHz & 2.8KHz in both  
receivers (I've actually not got the 400Hz in my KRX3) and GP module,  
6KHz and 13KHz in in the Main
