Hello Jacques,
Placing a blocking capacitor will remove the DC from the
Heil element and allow it to work. But you may still have
a difficulty with low gain and output.
To overcome this HEILSOUND have developed a microphone
preamplifier specially for use with Icom equipment. The 8v is
taken from the Icom. Here are some details:

HeilMicrophone Preamplifier
HMP & HMP-M
The Heil HMP is an in-line microphone preamplifier for use with
Icom amateur radio transceivers. Traditionally these transceivers
have been low in microphone input gain when using Heil products,
thus preventing our high quality microphones from being
successfully used on Icom equipment. The HMP is designed to
eliminate this problem.
