The 308 ohm reading is ok.
You will not have a balance in ohms. One layer of wire is wrapped around another. What is important are the number of turns not the length of the wire. The outer layer will have to go more distance to give an equivalent number of turns, thus the higher reading in resistance.
That black wire is where the center tap should connect. When the transformer was in the radio did it do so?
