Technics SP-10 Mk3 Power Supply / Control Unit


Hello
I spotted Technics SP-10Mk3 in my local used Audio equipment place.
This guys do professional Audio-video installations and they do from time to time
contract job to up-date local radio station gear. So they got this SP -10 Mk3 TT
from a radio station. It's just the deck, no base (plinth ?) no tone arm and
very unfortunately no power supply for the TT.
The people from the radio station are 100% positive that this TT worked fine
with out any problems however no one knows where is the Power Supply/Control Unit.
Can anyone help me find one ?
I'm just a music lover and vinyl collector and not a dealer, I just would love to
one day to be able to enjoy this TT. Now it's unfortunately just a paper weight.
I would really appreciate any help.

Why not try emailing Technics in Japan? See if there is any current unit that could be substituted. There is a very active used market in Japan but I don't know how to access it. Ebay isn't big in Japan. At least in audio.
Check threads on diyaudio. Two different guys are developing outbooard PSs for the MkII and are discussing applicability to the MkIII. Neither is a finished product yet, but it's likely that Mark Kelly (the first of the two guys) will have one some time. Steerpark (the other guy) seems only to be intent upon posting a schematic and maybe a kit. Nevertheless, therein lies your salvation, if you have faith and patience.
Dear Wireknot: Maybe this could sound something stupid but maybe ( I can't be sure ) the MK2 power supply could work with it and this mK2 is more easy to find, even you can buy a SP-10 MK2 ( very low price ) and take the PS but like I told you I can't be sure it works: maybe yes.

The other road could be to find the squematic diagrams through Vinyl Engine and that your audio friends that you named build one for you.

Regards and enjoy the music.
