The results of an eight station, 18-cm intercontinental very long baseline interferometry for which the synthesized beam obtained was 0.008 x 0.003 arcsec are presented for the steep spectrum compact radio source 2147+145. These observations reveal a structure similar to flat spectrum compact sources and, if the source radiates due to the synchrotron process, a very weak magnetic field. The source consists of a line of knots 0.022 arcsec long along position angle of 38 deg dominated on one side by a component of size 0.0032 arcsec measured along a position angle of 38 deg. It is suggested that 2147+145 and, perhaps, related steep spectrum objects are similar to flat spectrum, optically active sources except that the magnetic field is much weaker.
