The last version of Kyiv compiled series of celestial reference frames RSC(GAO UA)99 C 03 comprises positions of 736 radio sources (RSs). It was formed by Kyiv arc length method on base of 6 various institutions' initial solutions prepared in 1999, namely RSC(USNO) 99 R 01, RSC(GIUB)99 R 01, RSC(SHA)99 R 01, RSC(FFI)99 R 01, RSC(IAA)99 R 01, and RSC(GSFC)99 R 00. Averaged formal uncertainties of 212 defining RSs of the frame are equal to 0.06 and 0.07 mas in right ascension and declination, respectively. Axes of the frame are aligned to those of the ICRF with accuracy of 0.021 mas. This paper discusses accuracy of the ICRF, of all used initial frames, and of Kyiv compiled frames obtained during 1997-1999 span.
