Using the Voyager 1 and 2 planetary radio astronomy experiment, data in the kilometric wavelength range from January to December 1979 have been analyzed. Statistical studies of the broadband kilometric radiation reveal new results on the polarization and beaming of the emission. The northern and southern components are right-hand and left-hand, respectively polarized, without reversal at encounter. The central meridian longitude occurrence of these two components is dependent on the xenographic latitude of the observer. The shadowing by the Io plasma torus is confirmed, the boundaries of the emission beam have been deduced, and it is shown that the latitudinal beaming of the emission is dependent on local time, from dayside to nightside observations. The results are discussed in terms of a source radiating in the extraordinary mode.
