[TenTec] Heil Mic Wiring to Orion

[Richard Williams]

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.
