Abstract
Observations of circular polarization at 3,240 MHz are presented for the QSO PKS 1127–14. The results are discussed in the light of other observational data, and it is concluded that this object contains a component with a magnetic field of at least 6.4 × 10−2 G, provided the mechanism involved is ordinary synchrotron radiation.
