Checkerboard[5] and Checkerboard[8] are also MOS scales, with L/s ratios of 2.75 and 1.75 respectively. Checkerboard[8] is the basis for the [[TAMNAMS]] name checkertonic for 3L 5s, whereas checkerboard[5] has the [[TAMNAMS|antipentic]] step pattern.

11 generators add up to 4 octaves and an ^1, showing how very near 11-edo this scale is. 7 generators add up to a down-5th, thus all modes contain 4 down-5ths. The 11 modes of Checkerboard[11] are listed here in order from sharpest to flattest. The notes that differ from the neighboring modes are '''bolded'''.

11 generators add up to 4 octaves and an ^1, showing how very near 11-edo this scale is. This is in fact the 11-tone maximally even MOS scale in 41edo. 7 generators add up to a down-5th, thus all modes contain 4 down-5ths. The 11 modes of Checkerboard[11] are listed here in order from sharpest to flattest. The notes that differ from the neighboring modes are '''bolded'''.

See the discussion at [[Kite Giedraitis's Categorizations of 41edo Scales]]. It also discusses the many non-octave MOS scales. Checkerboard[11] is discussed in the eleven-tone section. It can be thought of as every other note of the Laquinyo genchain. Likewise, the 41edo smitonic scale, based on an ^m3 generator, is every fourth note of the Laquinyo genchain, and the Pythagorean pentatonic is every fifth note. Other MOS scales derived from the ^m3 generator are more awkward to play.
