Hmmm. You said you ohmmed out the coil already. Did you do so measuring directly from the antenna terminals and directly from the grid of the tube for the other side? Check also on the megohms scale for leakage to ground.

Any chance the antenna section of the tuning cap is shorting as you rotate it lower in the band?
