197 equal divisions of the tritave, perfect twelfth, or 3rd harmonic (abbreviated 197edt or 197ed3), is a nonoctave tuning system that divides the interval of 3/1 into 197 equal parts of about 9.65 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 31/197, or the 197th root of 3.

197edt can be described as approximately 124.293edo. This implies that each step of 197edt can be approximated by 7 steps of 870edo.

It is a very strong no-twos, no-fives 19-limit system, though it additionally represents the interval of 5/4 very well, and the 8th harmonic decently.
