A couple of things to check:

Does the Heil plug conform to the standard sound card jack? Audio on 
tip, electret voltage (if required) on ring, shield on shell. The plug 
must be a stereo plug, not a mono plug.

Perhaps your sound card has a mic preamp that can be turned on. 
Right-click the speaker icon in the system tray/open volume 
control/options/properties. Look under both recording and playback 
advanced controls for a mike boost checkbox.

Good luck.
