%N Numbers k such that (11*10^k + 19)/3 is prime.

%C For k > 1, numbers k such that the digit 3 followed by k-2 occurrences of the digit 6 followed by the digits 73 is prime (see Example section).

%C a(39) > 3*10^5.

%e 3 is in this sequence because (11*10^3 + 19)/3 = 3673 is prime.

%e Initial terms and associated primes:

%e a(1) = 1, 43;

%e a(2) = 2, 373;

%e a(3) = 3, 3673;

%e a(4) = 9, 3666666673;

%e a(5) = 17, 366666666666666673, etc.
