G'day Carl, If you get aggressive with TX EQ you can make the Heil iC element sound pretty good. If you can get someone who knows your voice to listen while you make adjustments you should be able to come up with settings that suit your voice.
I started out with the settings outlined on the Heil All things Elecraft page - it's at http://www.heilsound.com/amateur/dsp-settings/125-all-things-elecraft and with the help of another operator finally came up with the following :- -16, -16, -06, +00, +06, +12, +12 and +09 for TXEQ. Compression is at 25 and mic gain is high enough to have the fifth, and occasionally the sixth, ALC bar flickering. With those settings I often get unsolicited reports of very good audio.
