I posted these two posts over the last few months:

Well it may be easy enough to look at both of these posts and realize, now, that they were related. The drain is still caused by my radio, so I just disconnect it when I am not using it. The voltage drop and the slowing of the lights was caused by a few things. Firstly, my negative battery cable had been cut by my smog pump pulley and probably was either grounding directly there or just couldn't support the current flow anymore due to that. The ground wire from the alternator had evidently taken up the slack..and it really looked like it had basically burned up at a connection I had made a while ago(the weakest spot, I guess.) The wiring was basically not connected any longer due to being overloaded, and finally caused a complete loss of power, killing my battery along the way. There was also a problem with my positive battery cable coming out of the hold down strap and burning on my header...but after removing it, it was easily fixed and strapped back down. Another section of wiring closer to the battery looked similar to that near the alt, so I replaced that as well.

So if you have a problem with your voltage dropping at idle and your blinkers slowing, check your wiring. It's nice to see the voltage steady at a bit over 13v rather than floating around 9.
