Following on from yesterday's attempt. I made transfer function and spectra measurements with the input modecleaner locked and
unlocked. In summary, there wasn't too much difference in the noise spectra above 100 kHz with the input modecleaner locked
or unlocked.
Attached are transfer function measurements when the input mocdecleaner was unlocked and locked respectively (IMCULKD1.tif,
IMCLKD1.tif). The noise spectra measurements are IMCULN1.tif and IMCLN1.tif respectively. The mixer calibration was measured
to be 1.93/77.4 V/kHz.

SR7855, plotted as mxr.png
I stitched and calibrated Peter's FSS mixer data with IMC locked from the SR785 and Agilent together, multiplying the Agilent spectrum by a factor of 25 to get them to match up.
