The q odd limit, where q is an odd positive integer, consists of everything of the form 2^i*u/v, or [math]\displaystyle{ 2^\mathbb Z\frac u v }[/math], where u and v are odd integers less than or equal to q. It may be identified with the q-limit diamond.
Examples
some ratios in the 9-limit are: 3/2, 5/4, 7/6, 10/7, 12/7, 9/8, 14/9,
but not 11/9 (11 is a prime greater than 9) nor 15/7 (since 15 is 3*5, both less then 9, but with product greater than 9)
