Vibrationally excited silicon monoxide masersPublished data on a select group of SiO maser sources have been analyzed for velocity variations as a function of phase. No apparent correlation was found to a level of about 2 km/s. This places constraints on the location of the maser molecules. Such a correlation should be present at some level. The implications for future high resolution infrared measurements are discussed.
