Abstract: The scale of an endomorphism, $alpha$, of a totally disconnected, locally compact group $G$ is the minimum index $[alpha(U):alpha(U)capU]$, for $U$ a compact, open subgroup of $G$. A structural characterization of subgroups at which the minimum is attained is established. This characterization extends the notion of subgroup tidy for $alpha$ from previously understood case when $alpha$ is an automorphism to the case when $alpha$ is merely an endomorphism.
