Airborne eclipse observations of the [Si X] 1430.5 nm coronal emission
line are reviewed, and new ground-based out-of-eclipse coronagraph ob
servations obtained at NSO/Sacramento Peak are reported. We find that
the [Si X] 1430.5 nm coronal emission line brightness is less than 8 x
10(-6) B. in small active region corona which showed [Fe XIII] 1074.7
nm emission (corrected for sky background) of about 20 x 10(-6) B..
