Abstract

The highly variable and non‐thermal radio source GT 0236+610 exhibits outbursts with a period of 26.496 days, modulated by a four‐year period. Recent EGRET observations confirmed that this source is the counterpart of the COS‐B source 2CG 135+01.

COMPTEL observed this source during three observations in Phase I. We report here on the detections in each of the observations, the time‐averaged spectrum, and address the question of time variability with respect to the radio phase.
