Rob,

Yes, the MicroScout needs the light tube.  The Scout, on the other hand,
should work with the IR tower.  As I stated in my previous message, I have
absolutly no problems downloading NQC code to my Scout using BricxCC and the
IR tower.  I think the problem could be that the Scout SDK will only work
with the serial version of the tower.

Since LEGO no longer supports the Scout, I don't think there is anyway to
get the SDK to work with a USB tower.

Is there anyone that can disprove this?

Thanks,

Martin
