Abstract

Circular polarization measurements were made with the Parkes 64 m telescope on 66 mainly extragalactic sources, 33 of which were studied at two or more frequencies. Circular polarization was definitely found in the eight quasi-stellar sources PKS0237-23, 0537-441, 1127-14, 1226+02 (3C273), 1253-05 (3C279), 2134+004, 2145+06 and 2345-16, as it was measured at the 4u level or higher in at least two observing sessions.
