Yes, I believe so. Clockwise in both pics. And, I should probably clarify (or at least give credit) the diagrams were not made by me, but came from
this amateur radio astronomy type web page. But, I think, yes, the way the spirals are drawn in the second diagram would mean rotation would have to be clockwise.

EDIT: Wops, you said "counter-clockwise". I guess then, I disagree. Or, one of us is confused
