In the 11-limit, it tempers out [[385/384]] and [[441/440]], and is an excellent tuning for [[portent]], the temperament tempering out both, and for the 11-limit version of guiron, which does also.

It has two reasonable mappings for 13. The [[patent val]] tempers out [[196/195]], [[352/351]], [[625/624]], [[729/728]], [[1001/1000]], [[1575/1573]] and [[4096/4095]]. The 118f val tempers out [[169/168]], [[325/324]], [[351/350]], [[364/363]], [[1573/1568]], [[1716/1715]] and [[2080/2079]]. It is, however, better viewed as a no-13 19-limit temperament, on which subgroup it is consistent through the [[21-odd-limit]].
