19ed11/5 fails to produce acceptable approximations of any small harmonics. However, it does approximate harmonics 7, 8 and 9 very well.
19ed11/5 tempers out the septimal comma, 64/63.
Using 3 steps of 19ed11/5 (215.527 cents) as a generator, and 47 steps of 19ed11/5 (3376.589) as a period, you get the 7.8.9 regular temperament with the lowest badness using x31eq's default parameters, Sixscared.
You could, then, approach 19ed11/5 as a version of the Sixscared[47] scale. Sixscared doesn't have any useful small MOSes, so a more viable approach may be to use a MODMOS of Sixscared[5], [6], [7] or [8], or to use a subset of tones from Sixscared[15] (the smallest useful Sixscared MOS).
