I am also adding information about beat rates for major 3rds and
| 5ths. This information *does*, of course, vary by octave. I am currently
| using the F3 to F4 octave, simply because that's the temperament octave
that
| I learned aurally. If most aural tuners use some other octave to set the
| temperament, please let me know asap! (before I go too far in creating
| charts).

If an  A 440 tuning fork, the octave would be A3--A4.   But F3 to A4 works
even better.    For the beat charts on spread sheets, it seems just as easy
to do C3--C5 as anything else.  Such a range should satisfy all.    ---ric
