I am pretty sure I got the wiring right, but the dumb thing just won't turn on. Tomorrow I am going to check the antenea ground and see if that helps.
try connecting straight to the battery, or make sure your wires have a clean connection

I got it going a long time ago, I had by some stupid move reversed the wires (yeah I know I was almost positive I had them right) and popped the fuse. Wired it up right and it still works great. Thanks for your help anyway though.
