Equal tunings
1L 6s, named onyx in TAMNAMS, is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 1 large step and 6 small steps, repeating every octave. Generators that produce this scale range from 1028.6 ¢ to 1200 ¢, or from 0 ¢ to 171.4 ¢.
Name
TAMNAMS suggests the temperament-agnostic name onyx as the name of 1L 6s.

Theory
Low harmonic entropy scales
There is one notable harmonic entropy minimum: porcupine, in which the generator is around 150¢ to 170¢, two generators make a 6/5 (315.6¢), and three make a 4/3 (498¢).
