In interesting fact is you can remove one 12 volt wire, and swap one coax 
jumper, and make a Scout into a 556, 5 watt radio, very quickly.  The 5 watt 
556 was just a Scout running with only a driver transistor and no two 
transistor final.  The same modules provide the Band Pass filtering for the 
output signal.

One can also add a switch or external pot to the Scout to quickly go from 50 
watts to 5.  (replaces the bottom of the radio power screwdriver pot)
