The '''11L 2s''' [[MOS scale]] is most notable for being used by [[Ivan Wyschnegradsky]] and having a name "diatonicized chromatic scale". The more concise name for the scale, proposed by Eliora, is '''hendecoid'''. Another possible name for this mos in TAMNAMS is '''p-enhar balzano''', being one of four enharmonic scales of [[2L 7s]].
This scale is most notable for being used by [[Ivan Wyschnegradsky]], bearing the name '''diatonicized chromatic scale'''. Eliora has proposed the name '''hendecoid''' for its strong relationship to the number 11, as it's an 11+-limit scale and has generators that are close to 11/8. Frostburn has proposed the name '''p-enhar balzano''', as a grandchild scale of 2L 7s.


From a regular temperament theory perspective, is notable for correponding to the mega chromatic scale of [[Heinz]] temperament. Its generator of 5\11 to 6\13 hits so close to 11/8 as to be able to be called nothing but that interval, making it an 11+-limit scale - the strong relationship to the number 11 is the reason for the name "hendecoid". If just 11/8 is used as generator, the step ratio is around 1.509.
