We show preliminary results of three of the four radiosource pairs with angular separations ranging from 0.01° to 6° where we have determined such a separation with a typical fractional precision of 10−8 using phase delays corrected for structural and ionospheric contributions. In the radiosource 4C39.25 we measure a motion with respect to an external radiosource which is compatible with previously reported internal superluminal motion.
