Popis: We have studied the temporal behavior of linearly polarized position angle in a sample of 98 pulsars observed from Arecibo over a four–year period in a search for free precession and changes in interstellar magnetic fields along pulsar– earth lines of sight. We set upper limits on changes in position angle.
