Be careful with that statement about Heil microphones. The ones for Elecraft and Icom have electret element and need bias. There is one newer Heil element that is electret - I can't recall its designation.
Yes, most Heil microphones are dynamic, but there are many exceptions.
Simply saying the microphone is a "Heil" is insufficient, one must be explicit about the exact model and the adapter used.

Well that was the problem! I wonder why I thought it worked before.

The reason I changed the jumper is because of the RemoteRig users
manual, that says:

    Control-RRC only: JMP-1 is placed behind the TTL connector. With the
    strap in place a DC voltage is feed to the microphone element. All
    ICOM microphones should be DC-feed.
    Dynamic microphones like the ones used by Kenwood should not be
    DC-feed. HEIL microphones should not be DC-feed either.

Maybe they just mean the desk microphones.
