Hello Shawn,

Another ham and myself looked into converting a 12 or 30M Scout module into a 6M module for the Scout. It seems that it is not worth the effort due to the Scout PA and some other issues. The PA is not designed for use at so high a frequency so it has little to no RF output at 50 MHz. Another problem is the huge amount of bandwidth available for Amateurs to use on Six Meters. We even got some pointers from the factory as to other problems when I asked about used 12M plug-ins for possible conversion to 6M use. It is a great idea that many hams have most likely thought about, but it is just not in the cards for this great little rig.

Enjoy your Scout. 73 Keith

A while back, there was some discussion about putting
Scouts onto 6m.  Was there any resolution to that?  Or
am I thinking of another email list?
