Yes, very similar to the tuning front end. In normal service life they never got 'twiddled' as Ferguson I.F. strips were drift free but I suspect yours may have been due to bad reception conditions. I think you said a couple had been 'rounded off' in the past.
You may find the cores have become detached with damp and age. John.
