87et is a particularly good tuning for [[Gamelismic clan|rodan temperament]]. The 8/7 generator of 17\87 is a remarkable 0.00062 cents sharper than the 13-limit [[POTE tuning|POTE]] generator and is close to the 11-limit POTE generator also. Also, the 32/87 generator for [[Kleismic family|clyde temperament]] is 0.04455 cents sharp of the 7-limit POTE generator.
