17L 12s is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 17 large steps and 12 small steps, repeating every octave. 17L 12s is a great-grandchild scale of 5L 2s, expanding it by 22 tones. Generators that produce this scale range from 703.4¢ to 705.9¢, or from 494.1¢ to 496.6¢. This MOS, belonging to the Leapday and Grackle temperaments, is generated by taking a chain of 29 fifths tempered 1.49 to 3.93 cents sharp. That is to say, its region includes all linear combinations of 17edo and 29edo and divides at 80edo into Margo Schulter's gentle region extending down to 29edo and a yet-unnamed region extending up to 17edo.
