A friend gave me a Phillips-head screwdriver that works great for this.  I 
used mine yesterday to pull the deck for cable and parts work.  I don't 
know where he got it, but I'm pretty sure it's one of those non-descript 
tools from somewhere like Home Depot or Lowe's.  It has a gray handle with 
an orange tip on the handle and I'm pretty sure I've seen these at various 
hardware stores.  It just happens to have a shaft that's long enough to do 
the job.  I'm pretty sure if you look around, they're not too hard to find.

I have a Vaco set that has screwdrivers with extensions.  These won't work 
as the extension is too bulky to fit between the back of the RF deck and 
the back panel.

Good luck with it.
