Figure 1 shows observations for four sample sources from the Parkes 5 GHz polarization monitoring programme. Interesting features illustrated include •Sudden changes of the position angle of the linear polarization by ≳ 70° in PKS 0537-441 and 1253-055 (3C279).•A linear increase in the position angle of the polarization of PKS 2134+004 through 70° over 3/12; years.•Distinct bursts of circular polarization in PKS 0430+052, 0537-441 and 1253-055. In PKS 0430+052 (3C120) such a burst coincides with the possible superluminal expansion (Walker et al., 1981). In PKS 1253-055 (3C279) a burst of circular polarization is currently occurring at a time of very low linear polarization.
