The steep, small angular size QSO 3C286 (z = 0.846, mv = 17m) (Burbidge and Burbidge 1969) is a bright object in the radio band, which has a steep spectrum (α = −0.65, S ∼ fα) from 1 GHz, peak in spectrum at about 100 MHz, and self-absorption below 50 MHz. 3C286 is a member of a well established class of radio sources (the CSSQSO) and is similar to 3C147, 3C309.1, and 3C380 in general.
