Reception:
The Model Two’s internal AM & FM antennae will provide very good reception. An outdoor antenna will provide
the best possible reception. For most, this is not an option. In such cases, if you do require improved reception,
try attaching the included dipole antenna to the external FM antenna jack on the back panel and setting the
switch to “External”. The best place to locate the antenna is near a window our outside wall. Sometimes just
reorienting the radio will improve reception. An indoor, amplified FM antenna (not included) may provide further
improvement. If need be, a wireless AM antenna (not included) may be used to improve AM reception.

Buildings made with concrete, steel, or aluminum siding may hinder reception.
Additional Speakers:

Cleaning:
Never use any harsh cleansers or solvents on your radio. Avoid using spray-on waxes. A liquid wood pol-
ish will usually yield better results. The face may be cleaned with a slightly damp, soft cloth. Take care not
to rub too hard.

Since the cabinet laminate is natural wood, it is not always possible to achieve an exact color/grain match
between the main unit and the companion speaker’s cabinet. You may also notice the wood darken
over time.

The Model Two is not magnetically shielded and caution should be exercised when using
this unit near a computer monitor or television set. We recommend each unit be a minimum of 3" from
a computer monitor or TV. The further apart the units are from each other, the better the stereo
separation will be.
