I fear that there is a misunderstanding here. The 'perfect' fifths you
are checking (intervals of three tones and a semi-tone) are not 'pure'
fifths. One cannot have pure major thirds and pure (beat-less) fifths in
the same temperament. The fifths (and fourths) in 1/4 mean tone are
tempered.

I should have added--it seems to work quite well. I check perfect
fifths from open to 2nd fret on the next higher string also.
