Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

COMMENTS
Rotkiewicz proved that if k is in this sequence, and m = 24k^2 + 4k + 73, then m*(6m - 5) is a tetradecagonal Fermat pseudoprime to base 2 (A322123), and thus under Schinzel's Hypothesis H there are infinitely many tetradecagonal Fermat pseudoprimes to base 2.
The corresponding pseudoprimes are 60701, 832127489, 1381243709, 2166133001, 5885873641, 10876592689, 11945978741, ...
