McLaughlin (Jodrell Bank) report on behalf of a larger team:\n\nFurther to the reports on the radio emission from SGR 1806-20 (Cameron &\nKulkarni, GCN 2928, and Gaensler et al, GCN 2929, Atel # 373) we detect linear\npolarization from the source at 1.4, 4.9, 8.5 GHz at a level of at least 2.6,\n0.9, 3.8%, respectively. We caution, however, that these are very preliminary\nresults and more detailed analysis is underway to account for the possibility\nof polarization leakage from the total intensity signal.",
