Are you sure everything is on the same ground? Disconnect everything
but leave it powered up, and measure the voltage on the ground of the
scope, lfrx, usrp power supply, and sig gen. Then reconnect things and
do the same.

DC offset is automatically removed in hardware, but you can turn that
feature off.
