Numbers k such that 9*R_k - 2 is a prime number, where R_k = 11...1 is the repunit (A002275) of length k.
If k is in the sequence (10^k-3 is prime) and m=3*(10^k-3) then phi(m)=reversal(m), i.e., m is in the sequence A069215. - Farideh Firoozbakht, Dec 25 2004
No further terms for k <= 407197, see Kamada link.
