Testing the loop was for an OPEN, not shorts. If you measured only a couple ohms or less, then the loop is good. I assume your disconnected one end of the loop to isolate it before you tested it, otherwise results may be invalid due to connections in the radio.

Sounds like it may still be out of alignment then from your re-tweeking. I'd also test for continuity of the IFT's, both pri and sec windings.
