Hi Pete,
I can't answer your specific question but I have a related one which maybe=
 you
have already confronted.  I have an "older" Heil ProSet and the earphone=
 audio
is way low out of my Mark V.  It was perfect with my old TS-940S.

I'm wondering if maybe something like the 8:600 ohm transformer you=
 mentioned
might help; I could mount it externally in a little box with 1/4" jack,
etc.  I
seem to remember hearing something about the newer Heils being better, but=
 not
sure.  Are the older ones higher impedance?

I think someone, not me, said once that they mentioned the problem to Heil=
 and
Bob just flew off yelling about lousy designers at Yaesu, etc. etc.  Sheesh.

Thanks,
