For a direct line powered radio like one of these, the return for resistance and voltage measurements is the B- connection (minus of filter cap), not chassis ground. For transformer powered sets, chassis is ground. Resistance is always measured cold (unplugged). It's a good idea to check for voltage on the filter caps if there's any doubt...
