Log message: user.warn kernel: NF Channel measured

We have several ZF7782 APs (running 9.10.2.0.63 with ZoneDirector) and I'm looking at the syslogs, and there are many kernel "user.warn" messages about NF Channel measurements.  They sometimes come (in threes) once a second, then skip several seconds, then a couple more, etc.  See below for a snippet.

The fact that they are warning level concerns me, but I have no idea what they are trying to say.  Can anyone help explain them?

And while I"m asking, what are the "user.info" messages with four hex values?

thanks in advance for any help you can provide
Jason Reich.
