161et [[tempers out]] the [[würschmidt comma]], 393216/390625, in the 5-limit; [[3136/3125]], [[6144/6125]] and [[2401/2400]] in the 7-limit; [[243/242]], [[441/440]], [[540/539]] and [[5632/5625]] in the 11-limit; and [[351/350]], [[847/845]], [[1001/1000]], [[1188/1183]], [[1575/1573]] and [[1716/1715]] in the 13-limit. It serves as the [[optimal patent val]] for the [[mintone]] temperament in the 5-, 7-, 11- and 13-limit.
