%N Numbers whose maximal Pell representation (A352339) is palindromic.

%C A000129(n) - 2 is a term for n > 1. The maximal Pell representations of these numbers are 0, 11, 121, 1221, 12221, ... (0 and A132583).

%C A048739 is a subsequence since these are the repunit numbers in the maximal Pell representation.

%C A065113 is a subsequence since the maximal Pell representation of A065113(n) is 2*n 2's.
