Harmonics 37–74
Prime factorization 37 (prime)
Dual sharp fifth 56/37 (717.482c)
Dual flat fifth 55/37 (686.288c)

The harmonics 37–74 (also harmonic series segment 37::74 or harmonic series mode 37) are a scale that consists of harmonics 37 through 74 (37:38:…:74) and repeats at the octave. Used as a tuning system, it is also called 37afdo.

It is the first odd-numbered mode in which both fifths (all odd-numbered modes being either dual-fifth or fifthless) are diatonic, and has the incredibly accurate 44/37 quarter-octave.
