Dear Lee,
Tldr: Inserting the following line between "myNotes = \relative c’ {“ and
“\repeat tremolo 4 g16”
\override TabStaff.StemTremolo.stencil = #ly:stem-tremolo::print
Will force LilyPond to have the tremolo sign show up on the TabStaff. However,
you may notice that the tremolo signs are often colliding with the numbers. So
I might suggest a global “bringing-down” of these tremolo signs, by adding the
following line:
\override TabStaff.StemTremolo.extra-offset = #'(0 . -1)
Instead of -1, you might like -0.5.
A bit more details: according to the documentation, TabStaff has some
“stencils” turned off, and StemTremolo is one of them:

All the best,
Yoshi
