  PKS 0202$+$149 is a low-power radio source with blazar-like $\gamma$-ray AGN
characteristics and its properties and classification are investigated in
relation to its $\gamma$-ray characteristics. It shows a hint of low frequency
turnover at about 200 MHz. Radio imaging data of 0202$+$149 at different
frequencies show differing morphologies on both kilo-parsec (kpc) and parsec
(pc) scales. The overall source shows a triple structure of core and double
lobes with a total projected size of $\sim$1.3 kpc. The compact source
structure of 0202+149 is reminiscent of a compact steep spectrum (CSS) source.
At pc scales a core-jet structure extends $\sim$25 pc (in projection) at a
position angle perpendicular to the kpc-scale structure. The curved pc-scale
structure with jet and inner lobe suggests that the CSS nuclear activity has
recently re-started although its power has been decreasing, while the kpc-scale
lobes are relics of earlier activity. A maximum apparent superluminal motion of
$\sim16\,c$ is detected in the jet components, indicating a highly relativistic
jet flow. The brightness temperature of the core is lower than the average
value found for highly-beamed $\gamma$-ray AGN, indicating a lower radio power
and a relatively lower Doppler boosting factor. The CSS radio classification
indicates that blazar-like $\gamma$-ray properties can also be manifested in
low-power CSS radio sources with appropriate jet and beaming properties.
