306edo provides a very accurate fifth, only 0.0058 cents stretched. In the 5-limit, the patent val tempers out 78732/78125 (sensipent comma), whereas the alternative 306c val tempers out 32805/32768 (schisma). In the 7-limit the patent val tempers out 6144/6125, whereas 306c tempers out 16875/16807. 306 is the denominator of 179\306, the continued fraction convergent after 31\53 and before 389\665 in the sequence of continued fraction approximations to to log2(3/2). On the 2*306 subgroup 2.3.25.7.55 it takes the same values as 612edo.

306edo provides an excellent approximation of Valotti temperament due to its representation of the Pythagorean comma as 6 steps.
