Thanks to everyone who replied to my post.

The upshot seemed to be that the two mics are
interchangeable on the Orion.  The difference between
them seems to be the 706 PTT switch latches, that is,
the operator must push once to transmit and push again
to receive.  The 705 PTT is the more familiar "hold to
talk" type of switch.  Also, the 706 is charcoal gray,
which matches the Orion finish.

73 to All,

Mike Rauh W8GT
