Resistors tend to drift high (sometimes even open) and ones that start high tend to be worse so I tend to believe the meter...
Be GALD your set did not spend it's life outside getting rained on/in...I found a 1972 Sylvania in a ditch once with the amount of rust in its metal table model cabinet, rot in the back and lawn debris inside it I was sure the only good part would be the CRT...But then I washed the crap out and decided to 'play' with it. Somehow with little effort, it made a raster...Getting anything else out of it meant replacing 95% of the resistors in each stage (most were wildly out of tolerance). Somehow it made a damn good pic and decent sound for a while after re-resistoring it.
