Most any SWR meter is useful on 6m as a relative instrument.  In SWR 
measurement, it does not matter as much what your Absolute SWR is, as 
can you find a minimum SWR somewhere in the band?  Thus, even if the SWR 
magnitude might not be exact, you can get relative readings to identify 
what area of the band you can operate with your antenna.

Be aware of 6m having shorter wavelength, the quality and length of coax 
jumpers can affect your meter results.
