Sounds like an ignition switch is heading 'south' in a hand basket. If you have more "shutoff" troubles replace the electrical part of the ignition switch

I would look over the switch also. Does it cut out when you drive sometimes?

I'm with the other two on this. Ignition swith, Or maybe the main relay. But I don't think the relay would make the radio lose it's constant hot.

If you come back and radio and clock are reset it's a battery issue and you need to look into this more. If it was a switch it wouldn't be resetting your clock and radio.
