Since I was fine tuning CW to a wormy picture and then fine tuning CCW until not wormy, I may simply be not using the proper fine tuning because the misaligned 4.5mc trap makes the worminess excessive too early in the fine tuning CW rotation.
Sorry I didn't see this before.

Yes, with the core so obviously misadjusted, it makes sense to try adjusting it. But if you can;t improve it by adjusting the core, you will need to look for something else.
