Measurements of the scintillating confusion level are used to investigate the compactness properties of radio sources with flux densities in the 0.6-3 Jy range at 81.5 MHz. A simulation is made from a 167-source sample of 3C radio sources, and an Einstein-de Sitter cosmology is assumed. The interplanetary scintillation measurements are found not to be consistent with a simple extrapolation of the properties of the sample of 3CR sources to larger redshifts. The fainter sources have on the average more flux density in compact structure which itself has a larger mean angular size.
