UBNT says that they got DFS2 working in 5.5.2, in 2012, so at least some
radios, including the NSM5, are compliant. Aren't these officially
approved yet for the DFS bands?

DFS always comes second due to a longer certification process. It'll
eventually come. Some manufacturers seem to get approved more quickly,
but that could be timing of announcements and not the actual
certification process.
-50 dBm? Where? Where? I do see where your address is and I am
suspect. I am in suburban Chicago and I have at worst -70 noise floor.
It's actually better in downtown Chicago at someone I know's apartment
22 floors up (maybe low-E glass?). Something is very wrong if you have
a -50 dB noise floor.

Recent events make me wonder if the FCC is trying to muscle wisps out
of these frequencies.
Since we are primarily Ubiquiti equipment I can only speak from that
platform.
First the latest firmware update removes compliance test which for
about 40% of our equipment deployed would render them unusable since
5735 - 5840 runs at - 50dBm or higher noise levels in our area,
Second is new product released only supports 5735 - 5840.
Seems like DFS is such a pain that manufacturers do not want to mess
with it.
Case in point the new NanoBeam M series only support 5725-5850 for USA.
Worldwide version which we are not allowed to buy or deploy supports
5170-5875.
Seems the only alternative is to go with licensed P2MP which makes
more money for the FCC and drives the cost of wireless internet up for
both wisps and consumers.
