Don't make a short cut. The beam size at a single place does not tell you anything.
Measure the mode of of the beam at multiple points. Calculate the mode matching ratio.
Align the mirrors precisely. Try to see the DC fringe. Predict the size of the DC fringe.
Test the demodulation system with a function generator. Find the 200kHz signal using the spectrum analyzer to find the signal and the optimal alignment.
Put the DC signal and the AC signal to the oscilloscope as X&Y.
Good luck.
