Abstract
In a research seminar in , M. Filaseta, O. Trifonov, and G. Yu showed for each integer there is no distinct covering with all moduli in the interval . In , this interval was subsequently improved to by the first author and O. Trifonov. The first author then improved this bound to in . Building off their method, we show that for each integer , there does not exist a distinct covering system with all moduli in the interval .
