I had a Scout for a few years.  Used it as a backup rig on 75 meter ssb.  Disadvantages are it tends to drift (there is a mod to fix this) and you are limited by the modules as to what band you operate on.  Also, the modules are fairly hard to obtain.  I upgraded to an Argonaut V for digital and cw.  Its a fantastic little rig and I really think you would be more satusfied with the A5.
