Why is my radio always drawing power?

The probelm started a few nights ago, i drove home from my friends house, get home, get out of car, everything is off. I didnt leave the dome light on or anything, and i took the face of my deck off.. The next morning my battery is dead. So i jumped it and it worked fine after that. I went to school and came out afterwards and it was dead again. The same thing has been happening for a few days. Last night i finally had time to look at everything, and using a test light and pulling different fuses i found out that it was my radio. When i unplug my radio the test light didnt go on. My method with the test light was like this: Unhook the pos. cable on battery and use the test light between the battery terminal and the cable to complete the circuit. When i did this the light would go on for a second and then die, when i unplugged the radio it didnt do this. then i disconnected my amp but it made no difference. So bottom line is my radio is drawing constant power and killing my battery. What could it be? All of my wiring is correct.
