The biggest problem will be matching your Electrovoice 606 mic cable termination to the TT-715 and it may be easier to just use a relatively inexpensive computer mic with 1/8 mono plug if you don't want re-terminate the 606.

Probably a guitar stereo 1/4" cable will do the output and a simple MC-1
to 1/4" stereo plug cable will handle the microphone side. Likely a
standard cable in the guitar shop or RS. I know for certain the output
cable is standard many places in 1/8" (3mm) and adapters are all over
those same places. At RS the output cable would be a 42-2616 for $14.99.

The cable that connects the microphone to the radio now with a 276-876
(4.99) adapter for the 1/8" jack on the 715 will work fine. Having
TenTec make custom cables is spending to much money and working too
hard.
