A project with multidisciplinary characteristics, aimed to implement t
he possibility of polarimetric measurements in single dish at the VLBI
stations of Medicina and Note, is presented. The project will often a
new window on many astrophysical items that may be approached using t
he already existing instrumentation and facilities of the two Italian
radioastronomical stations. We report here some scientific backgrounds
, together with some technical evaluations, on which the feasibility o
f the project is based.
