You didn't say what kind of radio it is (or if you did, I didn't see it).
The best and/or easiest way to implement this is going to vary with the type
of radio.
At the very worst, you need is a SPDT switch (CD4053 appropriately biased,
reed relay, whatever) and a couple of steering diodes.
But depending on the radio, it could be as simple as hard-OR'ing the PTT's
together and resistively summing the audio. You likely have way more audio
output available from the URI than you'll need to drive the mic input, so
there's a good chance all you need to do is add enough series R in the audio
coming from the URI to prevent loading the hand mic. Assuming you're using
the AC-coupled output from the URI you don't even have to worry about
DC-blocking the mic bias.
