The positions of radio stars measured with respect to the VLBI network of extragalactic sources provides an important link between the optical and extragalactic reference frames. The establishment of this link was brought a stage nearer realization with the publication by Florkowski et al.(1985) of the radio positions of 20 stars measured with the Very Large Array (VLA) of the National Radio Astronomy Observatory, and the publication by Lestrade et al.(1985, 1988) of 10 stars measured with the VLBI network.
