We present preliminary result of a VLA 7 mm survey toward 14 regions of massive star formation which are in an evolutionary phase prior to that of ultracompact HII regions. The observations were obtained using bright methanol masers as cross calibration sources. Using additional interferometric data at cm and mm wavelengths we compile the radio SEDs for the sources and discuss possible emission mechanisms responsible for the 7 mm emission, as well as the relation to the 44 GHz methanol masers. This research was partially supported by NSF grant AST-0098524 and grant Nr.CC4966 from the Research Corporation (PH).
