%e If p is a prime other than 3, 2*phi(3p) = 2(2p-2) = 4p - 4, sigma(3p) = 4p + 4, 2*phi(3p) + 8 = sigma(3p). So numbers of the form 3p are in the sequence. Also if k=175, phi(175) = 120, sigma(175) = 248, thus 2*phi(175) + 8 = sigma(175), so 175 is here. Note that 175 is not of the form 3p. No additional terms not of the form 3p were found below 100000.
