The Gulmarg gamma-ray telescope (threshold energy about 6 TeV) was tracking Cygnus X-3 on four days in October 1985, around the time the source produced one of its most outstanding radio flares. Examined here is the behavior of the event rates recorded during this period with a time-resolution of 216 s. Two episodes of higher event rates, each several minutes in duration and having a Poissonian significance of about 4-sigma, were recorded on October 10 and 12, suggesting possible activity at TeV energies during the radio flare period of Cygnus X-3.
