Hello Bob,
The Heil mics will drive both radios well. My wife (Merri AB0MV) was using a Ten Tec desk mic with her Scout when we met on the air in 1998. I gave her a Heil Pro-set (headphones and boom mic) with the DX mic element and she immediately noticed an improvement in readability and QSO rates. I've used my Pro-set (like hers) with my Argo-556 (QRP Scout) and my Corsair-2 and it also works well.
The newer Pro-set has both mic elements, and the Heil Mobile hand mic does, too, so I would highly recommend either of them for the Scout/Corsair.
