[GAP Forum] 3.M_{22}:2 on 990 points

Dear forum,

The group 3.M_{22}:2 has a rank-9 imprimitive permutation representation of degree 990. (This is the full automorphism group of the distance-transitive Ivanov-Ivanov-Faradjev graph.)  I would like to construct this group in GAP.

The www ATLAS gives a matrix representation of this group in characteristic 2; however, applying "IsomorphismPermGroup" to this matrix group gives a group of degree 693.

Does anyone have a suggestion for how to obtain the degree 990 representation?

Thanks,
Robert Bailey.
