you may be able to remove the plug wire from the cap and plug the wire into the coil for a better connection.
That is a good idea, I should be able to just plug a spark plug wire end onto my test spark plug and plug the distributor end other end directly on the coil. I will do it that way to make sure I had a good connection.

what happens when you manually open and close the points?
Well, the purpose of the telegraph test is that it isolates the CD box and coil and takes the distributor and points out of the equation. Since I go no spark with that test I have not moved on to the points or distributor.

Thanks!
