[amsat-bb] Arecibo and circular polarization using cheap yagis

I heard Arecibo would be using circular polarization, but I haven't heard if it will be left or right-handed circular polarization.

I also heard that there's a way to do circular polarization with the popular "cheap yagis." Apparently the details are in an article in the April 1999 issue of CQ VHF "Cheap Circular Polarization? It Can Be Done" on pages 66-69.

Is there anyone on the list that has this back issue that can tell me what the method is that is described in this article? Is it a physical quarter-wave displacement on the same boom? Two booms with a quarter-wave coax delay? Something else? How is the circular polarization done with the cheap yagis?
