Philco Shadowmeter
#4

540 Ohm indeed hints at the coil being OK though the mere fact of it "in place and not having been disturbed" means very little by itself - all bad coils I have seen were in place and undisturbed, and open.
In your case since it reads well below 2K we might assume it is the coil shunting the 2K resistor so it is likely good.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
