C-band polarization observations made over the weekend using antenna
8 (outfitted with the wideband OMT) show that this antenna has
anomalously high polarization -- typically 10%, reaching 20% at the band
edges. This is much larger than any other wideband C-band antenna.
Something is amiss.
However -- the polarization is very stable, as it is with all other
antennas.
