(I wonder if Jeff could do a 5v/12v trigger jack as part of the customization...)
Yes but they're rare and will run a couple of hundred dollars on eBay. But didn't Jeff say on his website that he's building a remote control for the decks too?

I'm not sure about memory counter queuing on the Technics? Am I correct in saying that it has no or just basic queuing features only? I suspect it doesn't have a light sensor/rewind slow either like a Studer has?
Mine doesn't in part because disconnected the memory counter. And mine doesn't have auto rewind either. The only Technics that I know of that has auto rewind is the 1700 and that's 4 track only, unlike the 1500 (and 1800?) where you can playback 2 and 4 track tapes.
