Notes on binary-codes related to the O(5,q) generalized quadrangle for odd q

In this note we determine the dimensions of the binary codes spanned by the lines or by the point neighborhoods in the generalized quadrangle Sp(4, q) and its dual O(5, q), where q is odd. Several more general results are given. As a side result we find that if a square generalized quadrangle of odd order has an antiregular point, then all of its points are antiregular.
