Consensus needed on 16V amplifier wire...

[rfkellner at snet.net (Rick Kellner)]

The fuba antenna needs power (very small amount but it still needs it)
to work properly and should be switched on with the radio.  The small
black wire that runs parallel with the larger cable should be connected
to one of the two male wiring harnesses on the car.  This is the stock
location.  The two (I think one black and one brown) stock wiring
harness should plug into a universal wiring harness to match up to your
new radio.  These harnesses are available at most stereo stores,
especially the ones that do installs.  They also come with a wiring
diagram/color code.  This makes all the installation easy, including you
speaker and power connections.

OK, just ordered a new radio, and I need to know, does the black wire
for the roof mounted amplifier get power or ground?  And if it gets
power, where to tap from?   Is it okay to have the amplifier powered ALL
the time by tapping it off the receiver power wire?  Has anyone done
this before?  Any experienced opinions welcome.
Thanks!!!
