An ECM 66 is a DIN output standard mic, so it's unlikely it's the problem.
Although I don't know your recorder. How is it connected to it?

The ECM 66B has a male XLR connector (you probably knew that!). I'm using a
Shure transformer to convert to a male mini stereophone plug to accomodate
the R-1's mic input.

P.S. By the way, I gave the ECM66B a healthy knock against a cardboard box
within minutes of bringing the brand new mike home with me. Could that have
damaged it and affected its output level?
