1L 8s
1L 7s, named antipine in TAMNAMS, is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 1 large step and 7 small steps, repeating every octave. Generators that produce this scale range from 1050¢ to 1200¢, or from 0¢ to 150¢.
This MOS pattern is somewhat of a wasteland as far as low-harmonic-entropy scales are concerned. However, there is one interesting no-5's scale, bleu. In this scale, 5 steps make a 3/2, and the chord 11:12:13:14 is represented as three equal steps.

Trivia
This scale is a leap year pattern of the tabular Iranian calendar, where the leap year is inserted 7 times once in 4 years, with 1 gap of 5 years. Curiously enough, one short step of this scale is close to the one step of Bohlen-Pierce.
