6L 4s, named lemon in TAMNAMS, is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 6 large steps and 4 small steps, with a period of 3 large steps and 2 small steps that repeats every 600.0 ¢, or twice every octave. Generators that produce this scale range from 360 ¢ to 400 ¢, or from 200 ¢ to 240 ¢. Supported temperaments include antikythera, lemba, and echidnic.
