Kahn conjectured in 1988 that, for each prime power q, there is an integer n(q) such that no 3-connected GF(q)-representable matroid has more than n(q) inequivalent GF(q)-representations. At the time, this conjecture was known to be true for q=2 and q=3, and Kahn had just proved it for q=4. In this
For matroids representable over both GF(3) and GF(5), we provide a method for constructing an orientation.

This paper considers representations of ternary matroids over fields other than GF(3). It is shown that a 3-connected ternary matroid representable over a finite field F has at most IFI -2 inequivalent representations over F. This resolves a special case of a conjecture of Kahn in the affirmative.
