Yes, several on this list have done so.

External to the dbs_rx I have an active patch antenna---its data
sheet says 27 dB gain, 1.5 dB noise figure.  There's also an
amplifier on the dbs_rx prior to the receiver chip, so the system
noise figure of the USRP itself should not be a problem.

Did you see my other email from April 4?  I think it went out
to the list.
