%C a(n) is not equal to 1 when n belongs to A074791 - numbers n such that n does not divide the denominator of the n-th harmonic number.

%C a(n) is almost always equal to 1 except for n=6,18,20,21,33,42,54,.. when a(n) seems to be equal to a prime divisor of n.

%C a(n) could be equal to a squared prime divisor of n as for n=100,294,500,847,..
