The lightning did create some damage. Since you are stating it is in the receiver, you will have to check the antenna , the feedline, and any ancillary components connected to the former.
If you did not have any lightning protection, then either the antenna or one of the connectors arced over and did the job for it. You can find out by either using an swr analyzer that will work in a high rf environment or simply get a low power ht and swr meter and get the swr on the antenna. If it is high, at least you will have a direction to go for your investigations. Adam Kb2jpd Yahoo!
