Jeon: 

Gnu Radio, per se, knows nothing of voltage. It just sees digital
samples as delivered by the hardware. What those samples mean in terms
of voltage amplitude as delivered to the antenna port is completely
opaque to Gnu Radio. 

The LFRX will easily tolerate an input signal with a voltage swing up to
+/- 1V. You would have to see what amplitude, in terms of
floating-point, is produced in your flow-graph.
