byte 19 :
Sat_polarization display status - binary 
data - the value of the internal 
auto$pol$enable$flag and 
sat$pol$display$status$code variables. The 
AutoPol feature slaves the RC1000's 
polarization control output to a digital 
input from a satellite receiver. This 
feature is documented in the user's manual. 
The sat$pol$display$status$code indicates 
the present status of the satellite 
polarization display field on the LCD on 
the front of the unit. In REMOTE or MANUAL 
mode, an 'H' or 'V' will be displayed if a 
satellite name is displayed in upper case 
letters and the present polarization 
position corresponds to the preset 
horizontal or vertical polarization for 
that satellite. Otherwise, an 'h' or a 'v' 
will be displayed if the present 
polarization position is in the 
neighborhood of the preset horizontal or 
vertical polarization position for the 
satellite closest to the antenna's present 
azimuth position. If neither of the two 
previous cases apply the polarization field 
will be blank.
