Measuring Turntable Platter Speed


I have an older Rega P2 that seems to warble (for lack of a better word) when playing. It's not that it's fast or slow, but I can hear slight, quick, pitch changes when playing a record. I put a new belt on, but no change.

Is there a method or relatively inexpensive instrument that I could use to monitor small fluctuations in platter speed?

Thanks in advance - Jim S.

@stilljim Sorry, I think I just read the title of the thread and didn't read the entirety of your post.  I don't think the device I mentioned will help with that.  I'm not familiar with that table, but you say it's "older".  Ever changed the belt?
