iRPM. I think it might have been free, it's OK but not earth shattering!

Dr. Feickert Platterspeed. You need a test disk with a 3150 test tone.

+1 for turntabulator.  Works great.  Nothing extra needed.

Sounds like you're not only in the ballpark, you're in the dugout!  Congrats.

This is what I use. I also checked it iRPM and get essentially the same readings.

Where do you get a 3150 test tone?  I have the Cardas and HI-FI News test records, neither of which have 3150 test tones.

I bought mine at RMAF in a room featuring one of Dr. Feikert's turntables. Here's link to his website where you can order the record with the test tone. http://www.feickert.de/index.php?id=16&L=1

I used Adjust+ which measures the 3150Hz tone using a computer directly from the phono stage signal, and found it accurately matched the Platterspeed app when used with my iPhone 6. So I can at least attest that Platterspeed should be accurate.
