In an exemplary design, an apparatus (e.g., a wireless device, an integrated circuit, etc.) includes a low noise amplifier (LNA) and first and second receive circuits. The LNA amplifies a receiver input signal and provides (i) a first amplified signal for a first set of at least one transmitted signal being received and (ii) a second amplified signal for a second set of at least one transmitted signal being received. The first receive circuit scales the first amplified signal based on a first adjustable gain selected for the first set of transmitted signal(s).
