The BSR UA8 will have brown and black wires going to the motor. These can be connected to the mains, or more elegantly, via the main radio on/off swich - maybe on the volume control? This is a mono radiogram so you only need 2 wires (signal + earth) going to the pick up socket. Is there a cartridge in the UA8? If there is, and if it works, do bear in mind that this will only be suitable for playing older Mono LPs unless you change the cartridge.
