It is closely related to 31edo, but the patent vals differ on the mapping for 3. It tempers out 78732/78125 (sensipent comma) and |-64 36 3> in the 5-limit, as well as |-68 18 17> (vavoom comma); 3136/3125, 19683/19600, and 823543/819200 in the 7-limit. Using the patent val, it tempers out 441/440, 5632/5625, 24057/24010, and 35937/35840 in the 11-limit; 351/350, 676/675, 1716/1715, 4225/4224, and 6656/6655 in the 13-limit.

5 steps of 279edo closely represent the syntonic comma, 81/80.
