 Here in the UK we got the "520STM" (no floppy, internal RF modulator) and 
 "1040STF" initially, and later the "520STFM"; I don't recall if
there was a 
 "1040STFM". 
There was. I have one. You are right, as the 'F' indicates the internal floppy
drive, the 'M' indicates the modulator. I was wrong, earlier, though; there was no
floppy-less 1040ST. The 1M ST was called the 520ST+. This was probably done to make things
interesting.
