Can't help you with the wiring for the Icom, but I put a standard +3 on my Kenwood TS 480HX, and I've been told it sounds better than the Heil HM-5 they sent me as a promotional item for the holidays.

Bet if you search around the on internet, you can find the wiring for it,

Good luck
Bob

Which microphone plug does the 706 have? If it's the standard 8 pin plug I can help with the pin out. And am I correct that the plus 3b is a 6 wire cord?

I downloaded the Icom 706MKIIG manual and took a look at the microphone wiring. The modular jack pins go 1-8 from left to right. The pins that are used for simple microphone funtion are:

4-PTT
5-Mic Ground
6-Mic audio

Looking through an old Turner wiring booklet for the 6 wire functions it shows:

PTT-Blue
Audio-White
Mic Ground-Shield

So to wire the Turner +3 to the Icom 706MKIIG:

Blue-4
Shield-5
White-6

Let us know it if works.
