There were three variations marketed as the 148 GTL DX in the early and mid 1980s. The first or "early" Cobra 148 GTL DX used an MB8719 and was made by Uniden with a PC879 board. Following that the Cobra 148 GTL DX "late" model was also marketed as the Superstar 360 FM. They were also made by Uniden (PC010) with an MC145106 PLL.The Cobra 148 GTL DX-B is a copy made by Cybernet and is of very poor quality. This model is sometimes referred to as the fake 148 GTL DX. It has a PLL02A on a PCMA001S board. The Cobra 148F GTL was made by Cobra after they bought their company from Uniden. During this time Cobra made quality cut-backs to save money, however the radio still performed well enough. This model is identical to the CONNEX 4800 DXL.
