m Octave stretch: temporary improvement until the roll out

39edo's approximations of harmonics 3, 5, 7, and 11 can all be improved by slightly [[octave shrinking|compressing the octave]], using tunings such as [[62edt]] or [[101ed6]]. [[Ed255/128 #39ed255/128|39ed255/128]], a heavily compressed version of 39edo where the harmonics 13 and 17 are brought to tune at the cost of a worse 11, is also a possible choice.

There are also some nearby [[zeta peak index]] (ZPI) tunings which can be used for this same purpose: 171zpi, 172zpi and 173zpi. The main zeta peak index page details all three tunings.
