We're 50 miles west of Chicago, No military (that we know of) nearby.
See DFS events weekly on AF5 radios. We don't use DFS for any important
backhauls, or any AP's for this reason. Most of network is licensed now
for this reason. Well, that and capacity needs exceed available
unlicensed spectrum.

We are in a town with a lot of military activity.
Any time the jets fly by, our DFS goes crazy.
Things will be stable for months and then chaos for 15 minutes. After
the jets are gone, things are stable again.

Subject: [AFMUG] Never seen this before
So i installed one AP and three remote Ubiquti radios for small SCADA
system in Fort Hancock, Texas a few months ago.
Used a DFS channel to avoid all the noise from three wireless ISPs in
area. No issues until yesterday when all three remote sites lost
connection. Lasted about 15 minutes and everything came back
fine...this morning same thing...i was in Tornillo so close enough for
me to drive to Fort Hancock quickly...told them not to touch anything
or reboot AP.
When i got there links had been up for a few minutes....logged in and
was watching all sites...
Then boom, AP lost connection with radios ..saw this DFS Radar message
on dashboard....had never seen one...nearest airport is small one in
Fabens...
Then i asked if they had seen any Border Patrol trucks nearby...they
said , yes by water ...marked and unmarked ...the latter has a
telescoping system with long range thermal cameras and other goodies .
I switched to 5160 MHz with 10MHz wide channel and monitored it for
severa hours...no issues...
Has anyone see this before?
