103 steps of 1059edo represent a continued fraction approximation for the secor generator interval in the form of 46/43. In the 2.3.5.7.11.23.43 subgroup this results in a 329 & 1059 temperament. The comma basis for such (assuming both patent vals) is 1376/1375, 2646/2645, 172032/171875, 16401231/16384000, 51759729/51536320.

2118edo, which divides the edostep in two, provides a good correction for 3rd and 11th harmonics.
