The TS590 is a very good rig, but as the list shows, above 20m the
narrow spaced dynamic range is somewhat poorer due to upconversion being
used, versus 20m and below using downconversion.
Not to be too picky, but...
The downconversion receiver is also used on 15 meters. Upconversion is
used on 60, 30, 17, 12, 10 and 6 meters.
Therefore, the only HF contesting band that is slightly compromised is
10 meters, where its performance is only as good as an Icom 756 Pro III,
and better than the much-revered IC-781.
