To link the optical reference frame to extragalactic radio frame, an observation program is in progress in Purple Mountain Observatory (PMO) and Shanghai Observatory. In this program, 70 extragalactic sources will be observed with the 1.56 m astrometric reflector in Shanghai. The secondary reference stars are determined with the twin astrograph (D = 40 cm, f = 300 cm) in PMO, and about 50 radio stars and some bright extragalactic sources will be observed with the twin astrograph.
