The 3.7 MHz is actually on the light. It's the beat between the 29.5 MHz sidebands and the 33.2 MHz sidebands. There are pads in the ISS PCB for a filter to notch this frequency--John is working on it.

I also found a 1.2 ND filter on the lens which focuses the beam on the ISS diodes. I replaced it with a 0.6 ND filter, which brought the ISS DC level (on the screen) up to ~4.2 (it saturates at 5). Once John finishes the filter we should be able to crank up the gain.
