An n-TOH (pronounced /toʊ/, like "toe") stands for the nth tritave of odd harmonics.
TOHs reject factors of 2 in JI ratios, having a prime minimum of 3 (similar to Bohlen-Pierce).
It is similar in concept to an octave of the harmonic series, a special case of a mode of the harmonic series where the mode is a power of 2. However, here the tuning spans (and repeats at) the tritave, and includes only odds.
