When is A111075(n) Odd?

Seqfans,
      To clarify, I should have stated my conjecture as the  
UNION of (i) and (ii) (by using "or", not "and"), like so: 
 
Conjecture: A111075(n) is odd whenever: 
(i)  n = m^2 for all m>=1 such that 3 does not divide m, or
(ii)  n = 3*A028982(m) for all m>=1.
 
Also, A028982 gives "Union of nonzero squares and twice squares."
 
Underneath it all, this may be trivial, yet for now it seems mysterious 
why the number 3 and the squares would determine when A111075 is odd ...
 
If someone can support the conjecture, they are welcome to submit 
the new sequence: "n for which A111075 is odd." 
 
Thanks,
      Paul

Conjecture: A111075(n) is odd whenever: 
(i)  n = m^2 for all m>=1 such that 3 does not divide m, and 
(ii)  n = 3*A028982(m) for all m>=1.
Note that A028982 lists positive integers having an odd sum of divisors.
