Hi all-
Yes, a 60Hz strobe should be applied to the outer dot ring. I found an LED nightlight that worked nicely, and verified our little science fair project (it also worked on my turntable). In my case there was very little variation in the flywheel stability.

That's it exactly. I believe the outside ring is for 60 Hz.
