Not sure I know how to check the coils for continuity. However, I messed with it after I wrote the above post. I thought that the coaxial cable that is screwed into the "RF Out" of the signal generator would act like an antenna. It does not.
When I bring the entire signal generator next to the antenna in the Philco radio, I then hear the signal MUCH louder. Maybe I'll try it again with the 455 KHz method and see if that works better now that I know the RF signal comes out of the actual signal generator unit better than the coaxial cable I was trying to use like an antenna.
