Scratchy??? A somewhat loud "pop" noise is normal when turning off
WPC/WPC95 games. There is a circuit someone built and sold that supressed
or eliminated this "pop". Would be nice to hear exactly what you are
experiencing. Can you post it on Youtube?

I'm too old to know how to get something on Youtube... At least
now. ...someday... Best way for me to describe it is 4 times as loud
as normal sound, but noise, like dropping a needle on a record...
( that's what came before 8 track tapes & cassettes) If you know what
they are.....

Normal, there's no muting on the output when you turn the machine off.

There used to be a mod called No Pop which eliminated this, it doesn't
bother me so I never looked into it.
