Hi Louis, KD5GM

I have connected my KLM-2m-c22 as per the manual instruction and it is RHCP
before the CS3 is energized.

By the way try listening on the 2 meters downlink of VO-52 it is LHCP
polarized and switching the CS3 during the pass you must note a very strong
difference between RHCP to LHCP been LHCP the strongest signal.

These antennas are mounted in the  X  pattern and are working very well.
The question is: under normal construction, (by the book), of the antennas,
are they left hand or right hand polarized before the CS-3 relay is
energized?
