The detections towards WX Psc and T Cep are new ones. We also present successful astrometric observations of SiO ν = 2 and ν = 3 J = 1→0 maser emissions associated with two stars: WX Psc and W Hya and their position-reference continuum sources: J010746.0+131205 and J135146.8-291218 with the VLBI Exploration of Radio Astrometry (VERA). The relative coordinates of the position-reference continuum source and SiO ν = 3 maser spots were measured with respect to those of an SiO ν = 2 maser spot adopted as a fringe-phase reference. Thus, the faint continuum sources were inversely phase-referenced to the bright maser sources. This implies possible registration of multiple SiO maser line maps onto a common coordinate system with 10 microarcsecond-level accuracy.}, title = {Pilot VLBI Survey of SiO ν = 3 J = 1→0 Maser Emission around Evolved Stars}, volume = {64}, year = {2012} }
