The discovery is reported of a highly variable radio source which coincides in position with cosmic gamma-ray source CG 135+1. The radio source, which is designated GT 0236+610, was discovered during a survey of the galactic plane for a class of highly variable radio sources. The survey had the objective to detect sources whose radio emission is normally very weak or absent but which from time to time exhibit short periods of intense radio emission. The observations were carried out with a 91-m transit telescope at a wavelength of 6 cm during the time from August 11 to August 30, 1977. The flux density of GT 0236+610 at a wavelength of 6 cm as a function of time is represented in a graph. In another graph the position of the variable radio source is plotted in relation to the gamma-ray source CG 135+1 and the nearest X-ray source 4U 0241+62.
