If I switch the L/R from Behringer the channels output balance switches around accordingly.

Since the L/R channels look identical I am going to experiment to see if deleting the louder L channel and then split the R channel into a duplicate.

I guess the dumb noob question from me is if the max 0.7 level indicates that the stereo mic I used 15 years ago was just a crappy mic

So it is then the right channel that is clipped at 0.7? That would rather rule out a problem with the Behringer.

And you have checked Windows is set to record in stereo, I assume?

No need to duplicate. Split Stereo to Mono and delete the upper track. A mono track plays identically out of both stereo channels.
