Normal bursts with right-hand (RH) elliptical polarization, millisec S-bursts with RH elliptical polarization, and S-bursts with left-hand (LH) elliptical polarization, are presently observed in an extended storm of decametric radiation from Jupiter's Io-related source, 'Io-B'. This radiation was 100 percent elliptically polarized at all frequencies in the 14-31 MHz range measured. For an 80-min period, there was a mixture of RH and LH elliptically polarized S bursts in the 14-20 MHz range. An examination of the origin of a Faraday-rotation difference between RH and LH elliptical bursts suggests that some Faraday rotation occurs in the Io torus; this was traversed more centrally by the LH bursts from the southern auroral zone than the HH bursts from the northern auroral zone.
