I believe this is good to go. No strobe though. Same as mine in that respect. If the speed is off, you'll know because it'll be way off. No strobe required imo.

I just looked at required voltages and thought about building something around LM317 voltage regulator but wasn't sure what 140VDC is for , thanks for this .
I guess I'd have to wait now , tbh if SME happens I won't be disappointed , ready to fit my tonearm and off I go ,

Someone made him an offer he couldn't refuse, with NO fees

I'll talk to dealer tomorrow about that SME TT and see what's what , it's nice to have that sort of headache .
In the meantime , as SP10 require restoration and I'm sort of leaning towards Techie, anyone successfully tried re-finishing body , like stripping it down and anodizing again or something similar ?

I have a domestic version that has had a simple but very attractive finish by removing all the paint (other than the dished area under the platter), smoothing off and then linishing to give a lovely brushed aluminium finish which I now think I prefer to the original; just as attractive and far more practical. I have seen similar finishes whereby the paint has been stripped and the aluminium chassis has been highly polished.
I have 2 more of these decks which are the broadcast version and which work fine but they require restoring cosmetically in a similar way. All 3 power supplies have now been recapped and work perfectly. Recapping was a little troublesome due to tracking on the PCB from previously leaking caps.

Thanks Jamie ,
in the end I went for SME 10 , mainly due to lack of time required for restoration/fettling , I surely will follow my interest in direct drive bit not at this time .
Thanks to all for help
