I put little stock in one test at one site by one group of guys on early
production units. I know there are loads of 590s in service in contest
group shacks and have been used happily on many FD sites, so the
question becomes one of statistical significance.
Rick reports on just TWO (early production) TS-590s at a German contest
club station. I know Bob had a similar experience with one or two 590s
at a US FD site. But I have NOT been presented with credible reports
from any other group and this has not been discussed to ANY degree on
any of the 3 TS-590 web discussion groups - and I moderate one of those
lists daily.
I do not dispute these stories ... I only wonder whether 4 or 5 reported
cases is statistically significant. A great number of 590s are playing
well among other rigs in a great number of shack world wide without
problems. My 590 was nice and quiet and played well with other rigs
close by. I cannot get too excited over this until I see more
(credible) data and (actual) documented cases. There appears to be far
more than 12,000 units in service, and this is just not an issue among
actual owners.

Every now and then we run these tests at one of our multi-multi contest
stations on all the transceivers we can find. There we have lots of
antennas but generally pretty far apart. If one of the radios causes noise
to all others, it gets banned from the site. Most of the low cost Japanese
radios have been banned because they disturb the other 5 bands when they
transmit.
