'''239edo''' is the [[EDO|equal division of the octave]] into 239 parts of 5.0209 [[cent]]s each. In the 7-limit, it tempers out [[2401/2400]], [[5120/5103]], and 29360128/29296875, [[support|supporting]] the [[hemififths]] temperament, providing an excellent tuning. It also supports and provides a good tuning for [[quasiorwell]] and [[alphaquarter]]. In the 11-limit, it tempers out [[3025/3024]], [[4000/3993]], 5632/5625, and 12005/11979.
