Template:EDO intro

169edo is inconsistent to the 5-odd-limit and higher limits, with two mappings possible for the 5-limit: 169 268 392] (patent val) and 169 268 393] (169c).

Using the patent val, it tempers out the sycamore comma, 48828125/47775744 and the rodan comma, 131072000/129140163 in the 5-limit; 245/243, 1029/1024, and 9765625/9633792 in the 7-limit; 385/384, 441/440, 896/891, and 312500/307461 in the 11-limit; 676/675, 975/968, and 1625/1617 in the 13-limit. Using the 169d val, it tempers out 225/224, 51200/50421, and 1071875/1062882 in the 7-limit; 2200/2187, 2420/2401, 2560/2541, and 6000/5929 in the 11-limit; 169/168, 364/363, 640/637, and 676/675 in the 13-limit.

Using the 169cdf val, it tempers out the valentine comma, 1990656/1953125 and the vulture comma, 10485760000/10460353203 in the 5-limit; 1728/1715, 5120/5103, and 235298/234375 in the 7-limit; 176/175, 540/539, 8019/8000, and 43923/43904 in the 11-limit; 351/350, 352/351, 640/637, and 676/675 in the 13-limit, supporting the buzzard temperament.

Subsets and supersets

Since 169 factors into 132, 169edo contains 13edo as its only nontrivial subset. 338edo, which doubles it, provides good correction for the approximations of harmonics 5 and 7.
