Marcus,

To reiterate what other people have said over the past few days,
calibrating the USRP requires an understanding of all of the analog
and digital controls that are in the path, and then computing
calibration coefficients for each possible combination.  E.g.,
changing the gain would change the calibration.  Changing the ambient
temperature will change the calibration.  Changing daughterboard
types will change the calibration, changing daughterboards instances
will change the calibration.  Changing the interpolation or decimation
will change the calibration...

Spending some time with the USRP FAQ should allow you to understand
what's going on.  This diagram page, RFX-2400 specific, should help too:
