I just pulled my radio in a 940. You could pull the radio out entirely to check your theory. Remove the plugs in the back and then the radio would be out of the circuit. Also, I believe you have other components on the same fuse. Which fuse are thinking has your radio on it? Lastly, on my car I believe it was impossible for my radio to drain the battery as the "battery" wire was really not that at all since to become "hot" I was required to turn the key to the ACC setting. SO with a meter you could determine if you really have a hot wire that is always on. Lastly, the radio controls the amp (if present, ) and the power antennae so you could think about those.
