If the radio was receiving properly before the parts got replaced, this raises a really tall flag.

Odds are that the change in the receiver was caused by the process of replacing those parts. A really bright light and a magnifier will probably reveal a solder "bridge", a tiny finger of solder between two foil pads that are supposed to be separate.

The status LED on the front should be green while receiving. If it goes dark, this is a big hint where to look next.
