I see that the two that I have that use the RS6 board both use the RCDR TMCC board, so maybe there's something to your contention.  I did get an RS6 board to work with the Legacy R4LC running it as a TMCC locomotive in my test stand.

John, when running in TMCC mode was the R4LC connected by direct wire or through the optical devices used in the wireless tether. All my testing was done with a photodiode monitoring the IR LED. Thats is where I saw a difference in serial data. Interesting the RS 6 made sounds when dumbing down the R4LC instead of the other way around. The possible downside of that approach is giving up 200 speed steps to the motor driver.

The CV now crawls in Legacy mode.
