uhh, two power leads?

One keeps the radio alive when you turn off the ignition.... the other provides power when you want to turn it on and the ignition key is turned on.........

For myself, I've always set up my radio so that I can turn it on without having the engine running, but I know a lot of the Blaupunkts used to have a second power lead that HAD to be there. It's sole purpose was to keep the radio from loosing power whern the primary power was turned off.
