The OFF/FM/AM knob is a bit hard to turn on the Tivoli Audio Henry Kloss Model One Radio. Will it loosen with time?

Is the white wire that comes with the Tivoli Audio Henry Kloss Model One Radio for AM or FM enhancement?

The wire antenna is for FM reception.

I'm pleased with the reception, but is there anything I can do to improve it further?

The supplied FM antenna, though basic, should provide better reception in cases where the internal antenna does not suffice. Remember to flip the rear antenna switch from internal to external when using an external antenna. For optimal performance, place the radio and/or antenna near a window or outside wall. For optimal AM reception, try a Select-A-Tenna, Terk, or Twin Coil Ferrite AM Antenna.

What plugs should I use for the rear Aux/Headphone/Rec Out connections?

These jacks accept a 1/8th" stereo male mini plug. Be sure it is a stereo plug, as a mono plug will not provide any signal.

How can I make my own adjustments or modifications?

The Model One is not user serviceable. Modifying your radio will change the performance of the unit beyond its design and void your warranty.

Will the Tivoli Audio Henry Kloss Model One Radio operate outside the USA?
