It is working, but you have a misunderstanding of how the USRP and Gnuradio
work. The DBSRXs downconvert the 800 and 820MHz signals to baseband (0Hz)
and then the USRP digitizes them and brings them to Gnuradio. You are
effectively multiplying two 0Hz signals. You cannot mix RF signals in
Gnuradio, only baseband signals. In the same way, a sample rate of 3.4Gsps
does not make sense.
