73edo
Theory
73edo has a very sharp tendency, with the approximations of 3, 5, 7, 11 all sharp. The equal temperament tempers out 78732/78125 and 262144/253125 in the 5-limit; 126/125 and 245/243 in the 7-limit; 176/175, 441/440 and 4000/3993 in the 11-limit; 91/90, 169/168, 196/195, 325/324, 351/350 and 352/351 in the 13-limit. It provides the optimal patent val for the marrakesh temperament, though 104edo and 135edo tunes it better.
73edo fits in mavila scale, by the 9;5 relation in the superdiatonic scheme.
