Paul,
I use a Heil Proset Plus on the pc with no problem for the little bit I
get on Echo link or the few times I record .wav files for dvk on HF
The Proset has a 1/8 mic plug so it needs no adapter.
You should increase gain on the sound card. Heil claims they build their
mics down several db's compared to others to avoid picking up room noise.
Even on HF they suggest increasing gain by several db's. I forget the
number but you can find it at heilsound.com If your soundcard offers a 20
db mic boost under the advanced button on the mic settings, check that box.
Not all sound cards offer this.
There were some posts on the writelog reflector a few years ago about this
subject. A few guys wound up building external preamps to get enough
boost. Others found it worked just fine by increasing mic gain or adding
the 20 db boost.
