Yes, I reproduced this strange tx bitrate value after try with 3 AP.
AP1: tx bitrate:     144.4 MBit/s VHT-MCS 7 short GI VHT-NSS 2
AP2: tx bitrate:     286.7 MBit/s HE-MCS 11 HE-NSS 2 HE-GI 0 HE-DCM 0
AP3: tx bitrate:     (unknown) MCS 254
I will check it.

I have sent patch to fix signal:
[v2] ath11k: add signal report to mac80211 for QCA6390 and WCN6855
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/patch/20211216070535.31732-1-quic_wgong@quicinc.com/

The new signal value of "iw wlan station dump":
         signal:         -50 [-51, -55] dBm
