IANAL.  You'll want to talk to one.

As long as you observe the terms that the code is licensed under, you
are free to do with the USRP and GNU Radio as you like.  GNU Radio is
licensed under the GNU General Public License, v3 or later.  The FPGA
portion of the USRP is licensed under the GNU General Public License,
v2 or later.

The GPL v3 is here:

You should seek professional legal advice and be sure that you
understand the terms of the license.
