The only EDO tuning that has less than 25% [[relative error]] for all primes in the [[17-limit]] tempering [[136/135]] is [[46edo]], which also tunes 20/17 with less than 25% relative error and 51/40 even more accurately.
The only EDO tuning that has less than 25% [[relative error]] for all primes in the [[17-limit]] tempering [[136/135]] is [[46edo]], which also tunes 20/17 with less than 25% relative error and 51/40 even more accurately. If you allow 7/4 to be sharper than 25% then [[80edo]] makes a good and more accurate tuning that extends to the [[23-limit]]. Alternatively, if you don't care (as much) about prime 11, [[68edo]] makes a great tuning in the no-11's [[19-limit]] and no-11's no-29's [[31-limit]].
