Strange - it's mainly hum which would suggest a ground

turntable motor which doesn't show with the pickup on
the rest.

Aren't you seeing the lf stuff?

Only listened to it on the computer speakers. The mains
hum is the obvious thing.

The 100 Hz hum is only present when the needle is actually in the groove.

Ah. Look at it in a wave editor. There's HUGE amounts
of lf rubbish.

Cheap turntable?
