The Argo 556 IS NOT A MEMBER OF THE ARGONAUT FAMILY. It is the low power version of the Scout. This is why Argonauts shoud be called Argonauts and not Argo.

Given that for many years an Argonaut has been commonly called an "argo" in conversation on and off the air, it is odd that Ten-Tec called the low power version of the Scout an Argo. I should think that a "baby" scout would be properly called a "cub". (Maybe some other company had already laid claim to that name.)
