In the 5-limit, 140et tempers out [[15625/15552]], making it a kleismic system, and the [[kwazy comma]], {{monzo| -53 10 16 }}. It is most notable, however, in the 7-limit, where it tempers out [[2401/2400]], [[5120/5103]], [[10976/10935]] and [[65625/65536]]. It [[support]]s the 7-limit rank-2 temperaments [[tertiaseptal]], [[hemififths]], [[countercata]] and [[bisupermajor]], and is a good tuning recommendation for countercata, the 53 & 140 temperament tempering out 15625/15552 and 5120/5103, and provides the [[optimal patent val]] for 13-limit countercata. In the 11-limit it tempers out [[385/384]], [[1331/1323]], [[1375/1372]], [[5632/5625]], [[6250/6237]] and [[9801/9800]], and in the 13-limit [[325/324]], [[352/351]], [[625/624]], [[676/675]], [[847/845]], [[1001/1000]], [[1716/1715]] and [[2080/2079]].

If we use the [[val]] {{val| 140 223 325 394 }} (140bbd) we obtain a tuning for [[porcupine]] temperament; the generator 19\140 is 0.023 cents flat of the [[POTE generator]].
