There aren't any satellites on 6M.
There's always the "old fashioned" solution, an HF receiver, an HF transmitter and a pair of converters or transverters. They're still available for the microwave bands.
There must be older 2M and 70cM multimode rigs available used ( IC211E, TS700, IC202/404 etc) that will happily drive transverters for the higher bands and amplifiers for their own band.

What are your choices for new? The TS2000 or the Icom 9100. Used, now there are many more options. Hard to find anything to fault about the Kenwood TS790, except that it doesn't do 6m.
