39edo’s approximations of 3/1, 5/1, 7/1, 13/1 and 17/1 are all improved by [[ed257/128#39ed255/128|39ed255/128]], a [[Octave shrinking|compressed-octave]] version of 39edo. The trade-off is a slightly worse 2/1 and 11/1.
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.
