[Bob Freeman]

Hello,

Have been monitoring the link budget discussion and have questions about
polarization.  Unlike the 2m and 70cm LEOs, I assume the spacecraft will be
stabilized with a fixed polarization and not susceptible to Faraday
rotation.  What polarization is planned for the satellite for up and down
link and do we need to start designing polarizers for the link?

Keep up the great work!

Regards,
Bob
