Mak SV1BSX (SK) visualized it nicely here: http://sv1bsx.50webs.com/antenna-pol/polarization.html
.. but best is to wait for Domenico to jump in :-) (Domenico, one day you need to publish your excellent lectures on the
internet !)

Hi Henk, PA3GUO
The Mak article SV1BSK (SK) is a very good article indeed about circular polarizatrion.
Unfortunately our good friend MAK died too young at the beginning of this year.
In my opinion there is a mistake in the last two drawing of the article where he is depicting two crossed yagi.
The green dotted line as seen from the reflector is really showing a CCW polarization and the red dotted line of the last drawing as seen from the reflector is really showing a CW polarization.

This is only my optical opinion or my optical illusion ? I would like to know your comment about because the sense of polarizations CW and CCW as marked by MAK seems to me to be reversed.
I recognized it only this evening.
