339 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 339edo or 339ed2), also called 339-tone equal temperament (339tet) or 339 equal temperament (339et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 339 equal parts of about 3.54 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/339, or the 339th root of 2.
Theory
339edo is enfactored in the 3-limit with the same tuning as 113edo, and is only consistent to the 5-odd-limit. Using the 339d val (⟨339 537 787 951]) in the 7-limit and the 339de val (⟨339 537 787 951 1172]) in the 11-limit, it supports tritriple.
It can be used for the 2.3.5.13.19.23.31.41 subgroup, where it tempers out 621/620, 780/779, 1026/1025, 1426/1425, 2945/2944, 14391/14375 and 73853/73800.

Subsets and supersets
Since 339 factors into 3 × 113, 339edo has 3edo and 113edo as its subsets. 1017edo, which triples it, gives a good correction to the harmonics 7 and 11.
