N2  - Using the formalism of Hamaker, Bregman &amp; Sault &#40;1996&#41;, I derive a method for the polarisation calibration of observations made with a single radio telescope. This method is particularly appropriate for observations of pulsars, where the sign and magnitude of the circular polarisation are useful for understanding the emission processes at work. I apply the method to observations of PSR J1359&#8211;6038 made using the multibeam receiver on the Parkes radio telescope.
