Right, ch 36 is not DFS but with 160 MHz set the router still has to clear for RADAR as the 160 MHz pushes into the DFS channels. If you are in an area where there is RADAR traffic you are better off to use 20-40-80-160 MHz. Then when the router detects radar it can go back to 80 MHz which will not use DFS channels and keep working. With 160 MHz set the 5 GHz band will be off for a few minutes on router reboot until it clears for RADAR.
Ah, that explains my wireless log:
SSID: "Steverino 5G"
noise: -84 dBm Channel: 36/160

Auto has select channel 36 but also using channel 50 (which is DFS, right?) due to my 2 AX clients. What is channel 50? It's not even listed as an available channel or DFS channel also in log:
DFS status: state In-Service Monitoring(ISM) time elapsed 126000ms radar channel cleared by DFS channel 36/160 (0xE832)
