[amsat-bb] AO-51 S-Band antenna polarization

[jmfranke]

Does anyone know the polarization of the 2.4 GHz transmissions from AO-51. 
Are they circular?  If so which polarity, RHCP or LHCP?  Are they linear? 
If so is there a preferred receiving polarization?  I have examined the 
AMSAT web site and many references on the Internet, but cannot seem to find 
the answer.

Thanks,
