3L 20s is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 3 large steps and 20 small steps, repeating every octave. 3L 20s is related to 3L 5s, expanding it by 15 tones. Generators that produce this scale range from 782.6 ¢ to 800 ¢, or from 400 ¢ to 417.4 ¢.

This is the MOS where the small steps split 7-7-6 among the large steps. Its generator is a supermajor third no larger than 8/23edo (417.391 ¢), which is almost exactly 14/11.
