Mr Morzh,

I finally removed the coil and inspected it carefully. I don't think it is defective. The primary is literally only one turn of wire. ( Hense the very low reading less than a ohm.) The secondary reads in your range. So that leads to another possibility to search: The main tuning caps may be defective. With the removal of the coil, the one gang of the dial tuning capacitor was bypassed and well as a tweeking cap. So I will look there next.

Thanks for your reply,
David
