Abstract
We determine the positions of twelve radio sources in the frame of the Carl sberg Automatic Meridian Circle catalogue using observations based solely o n CCD images. The precision per frame is 50 mas and most sources have 5 or more frames thus the accuracy of these positions is solely limited by the e rror in the reference stars.
