[78-L] New Cheap Turntable

I also have SP15 with ATP12P tonearm, it is usual combination. Strangely 
enough, tonearm has no antiscate adjustment.

I will rather invest in 3 speed table such as 1210 (1200) with 78rpm 
adjustment. I've read somewhere that there was such model of this particular 
table 1200 MKIII or MKIV revision, but it is not in current production.
