Some (maybe all) of those three trimmers may be accessible through holes in the tuner cage. I haven't found a diagram that shows all of that clearly. The Sams schematic does not show the adjustable coils (L42, L56)at all, and my photos of the tuner taken while cleaning don't show the internals clearly enough to guess whether they exist in my set.

I was ready to run out and try this, when I remembered that the CTC-11 cable unplugs, but the CTC-4 cable is soldered on. I'm debating whether I want to unsolder it yet another time. It has already come off twice -- once for cleaning the tuner and again to lubricate the fine tuner when it got sticky.
