I had the same problem on my 37-650 and I fixed it by
sliding the coil forward on the shadow meter body.

This lessens the magnetic field at the vane and brings the
shadow to a narrower shadow when there is no signal
applied to the antenna.

My shadow meter is of the "New Type" so I don't know if
this adjustment can be done on the "Old Type" or not.
