I am the guy with the other Philco. I will take it out of the radio today or tomorrow and check it for shorted windings. Continuity readings will not find a shorted turn so I will test it on my Sencore Z meter using its ringing test. I will let you know if its bad.
BTW, my coil has a green streak of corrosion that can be seen through the wax.
I have a thread going over on the antique radio forums about coil winding if you are interested.
