There is another way to install a battery master switch and still keep 
the radio and clock alive. Install the master switch normally, pull 
the fuse that feeds the clock-radio and on the side that feeds power 
TO the radio insert a connecter attached to a wire. In the wire add a 
line fuse of the appropriate size and then connect to the BATTERY side 
of the master switch. Now when you turn off the master switch the 
clock-radio will not lose their time-programming. I use a master 
switch that has a removeable "key" so that it is also an anti-theft 
device. Now when I go to cruise nights and car shows I can leave the 
doors open and even if someone should try to turn on lights or honk 
the horn they can't kill my battery. (I also keep a battery pack in 
the car but usually only need to use it to help someone else.) I have 
found that when there are "added" switches there is usually no 
documentation so a new owner doesn't know what they are for and in 
general should remove it.
