I realized I didn't have the analog meter perfectly zero'd out, but wasn't far off. Still less than 1 ohm when warm. I tried a Chinese aftermarket coil that measured about 5 ohms primary and 10,000 ohms primary to secondary. No spark at all! Also tried another condenser. Same symptoms regardless of which condenser was in place - weak spark with the old coil and NO spark with the new coil. I think my next step is to order a new Bosch coil. It looks to me that W0133-1625295 is supposed to be the replacement these days.
