Dear Stephan

>>
I just noticed that on your web site you rounded the 1/6 synt. c. deviation
of 1,63 cent to 2 cent, which happens to be the same as the rounded 1.96 of
Silbermann's 1/6 pyth. c..
<<

As you can see from the results I used (1/6 syntonic comma = ) 1,6 cents for
calculating my cents deviations, but rounded the deviations in the circles
to whole cents. So my list is yours (I rounded the F to +6, calculating with
1,63 would have come to a rounded of figure of +7.). I can program my tuner
(Korg MT-1200) in steps of 1 cent, so for me it is sufficient. But, of
course, in theory you are right. And I will add on the web site that
Silbermann-proper is 2/11 syntonic comma, not the 1/6 that I say it is. It's
just that 'everybody' calls 1/6 comma Silbermann. I know, that is the
worst reason to do it myself,  it just shows that my mind  is equally
mathematically challenged.

Thank you for such carefull reading of my web site!

David
