Radio interferometry has enriched positianal astronomy with extremelyaccurate celestial coordinates of extragalactic sources. As these objects are ideal points for an inertial reference frame, the problem of measuring the positions of optical counterparts with high accuracy is of central importance. Drs. H. G. Walter, Astronomisches Rechen-Institut, Heidelberg, Fed. Rep. of Germany, and R. M. West, ESO, recent/y measured 41 objects in the southern sky with the ESO S-3000 measuring machine. Several new identifications and improved optical positions resulted from this undertaking.
