The authors have observed the quasar NRAO 140 using an eight station very long baseline array at 18 cm in 1984 April and a seven station array at 6 cm in 1984 May. They compare both the map and the data at 18 cm with those obtained by Marscher and Broderick in 1981 October. The latter coincided with a ≡25% outburst in flux density at wavelengths greater than ≡30 cm. The analysis indicates that a component ≡5 milli-arc seconds southeast of the "core" dropped significantly in brightness between 1981 October and 1984 April. The authors identify this component as the likely site of the low-frequency variations.
