I had a case where I clicked the mouse and placed the frequency less that 1KHz from a signal, instead I watched it take off in the wrong direction for a signal 10KHz away. I was funny, I started talking to the computer "Where are you heading off to buddy?" When I clicked a little closer it locked in to the right signal. It should have ignored a frequency so far away in favor of a close signal, anything more than 1KHz or more is a good candidate to ignore. The offending signal was not even inside my audio filter, so taking the input from the output of the audio filter might be a good enough fix.
