(166, 197, 5509597)-Net in Base 3 — Upper bound on s

There is no (166, 197, 5509598)-net in base 3, because

1 times m-reduction [i] would yield (166, 196, 5509598)-net in base 3, but
- the generalized Rao bound for nets shows that 3^mÂ â‰¥ 3279 186770 159678 938866 771460 871416 490569 967317 155223 972646 517773 507360 483112 581969 537415 378921 > 3¹⁹⁶ [i]
