Denny,

Sounds like the MK-V and the Orion use the same pin outs. In any case, you can quickly check your audio by using the "MON" button (second down on left side next to screen). Suggest you use a set of headphones so you don't get in audio feedback. If you have problems it will sound "crappy" to your own ears.

I had to go through several re-iterations of wiring before I got it right. My problems, however, were related to figuring out a switch box arrangement where I could switch the Orion II or the Ten-Tec 526 6N2 to either a Heil Pro Set Plus or a Heil HM-10 boom mic.

I have a new Orion <as the group mostly knows>... When I ordered it last week I discussed the mic situation with Stan and told him I have Heil HM with the adapter cord for a Yaesu MK-V... He simply said, 'that will work'... So, knowing the reported mic problems on here it was with doubts I plugged it in... Talked with some guys on 75 meters and everyone agreed that it sounds fine... I have not fired up any of the beasts lurking against the far wall yet, so we will see.. If I do get RFI I will trace out the mic wiring and make it like the Orion manual says.. Until then, no change...
