660edo

660edo is enfactored in the 5-limit, with the same tuning as 330edo, tempering out the schisma and the 22nd-octave major arcana comma, [-193 154 -22⟩.
However, it is far better viewed as a no-5 system. It does tune well the 2.3.7.11.13 subgroup, with errors less than 50% on all pairs of intervals in that subgroup that also belong to the 15-odd-limit. In addition, in the no-5s 17-odd-limit, it only misses the pair {17/13, 26/17}.
Nonetheless, patent val does have some use. It tunes the undecimal dimcomp temperament and also provides the optimal patent val for the quadrant temperament in the 11-limit as well as the 13-limit. Furthermore, in 2.3.7 it is a septiruthenian system, and the patent val mapping for 5 allows the tuning of ruthenium temperament.
