Anyone have the "no-pop" kits available for sale for Williams machines? The kit is installed in the game (connected to the sound board) to eliminate the loud pop when the game is turned on and off.There was a guy that used to sell them (Herb Schanke) but he doesn't respond to emails. Please let me know if you know of someone else that has them. TIA
I'm not familiar with RGP and couldn't find a thread for it when I went to search it. Do you have to be registered there to search for something? Can anyone tell me how to contact Rob Anthony? Thank you.
gac...he goes by 'borygard' on RGP. Here is his web site. http://www.lockwhenlit.com/
Quoted from Cash_Riprock:gac...he goes by 'borygard' on RGP. Here is his web site. http://www.lockwhenlit.com/
He goes by the same name here on Pinside. You can PM him here. He'll respond.
Thanks Cash. Will do. I recently bought one from Hank and he originally sent wrong instructions. He responded to that but since I hooked it up, there is now more noise than usual coming from the speakers when in attract mode. It eliminated the "pop" but there is definately more background noise now. When I asked him about this and inquired about buying another one, I never heard back. Its been several weeks. I know he said back when I ordered it (cause it took awhile to respond to my request to buy) that he was traveling alot and didnt always have access to email, etc.
p.s...gac...this may be the thread vid1900 was talking about...started in Sept. 2012 and had been recently acted on again...and it is Herb.
Thanks for the link cash 
Anyone know what they sell for normally the Electrical side of things looks very straight forward.
The 'blow-out' price of the No Pop 2 kits were $25.00 shipped in 2012. Back in 2007 they were $45.00 + $5.00 s/h.
Hey Cash - You and me both... not good with electronics. I somehow got the link above for Herb back in January. It took a few days initially to respond to my offer tobuy one. I bought the one but again he hasnt responded to my question nor my offer to buy another one.
They don't work as well as you think they do. On some machines I tried, there was virtually no change.
I actually have these on 3 other machines and they work great. The last one (in FT) is the only one that has an issue. I know this last one was a "No-Pop Kit II". I wonder if this version is different in some way or where it is mounted could have something to do with it. Because the wires were shorter on this one, I mounted it to the back of the translite light board. My others were mounted on the back of the backbox above all the boards. Possible interference??

Maybe it's the Hudson Valley! ; )
I think the difference may have been the No-Pop 2 worked on more games.(see below from Ad)
This board is for ALL WPC games. It is compatible with all three sound
boards used in the WPC line of games (the A-12738 sound board, the A-16917
sound board, and the A-20516 audio/video board). While the same board works
with all 3 WPC sound boards, the wiring harness for each sound board is
unique and not interchangeable. So when ordering, be sure to specify the
game (or sound board) that you intend to use the NO-POP 2 with so that I can
ship the appropriate wiring harness.
*** Please note, the WPC NO-POP 2 will eliminate the "pop" that comes from
the speakers at start up and shut down. It will NOT eliminate the "screech"
or second "pop" that some people have described that occurs a few seconds
after the power is turned on.
Hey Cash - You are in the Hudson Valley?
When I ordered it I specified the game it was going into (FT). He sent the correct wiring harness (I believe) but the wrong instructions. I just checked the thread you posted above and see that someone inquired and he responded in early March. Not sure why he never responded to my question or request to purchase another one.
Yup...born and raised in Wittenberg....know it?
I haven't heard back at all. My pin has the 'screech' so it won't work any way. : (
