Default Need electrical advice 81 vette

Not sure where this should go but starting here.

81 vette with the original am/fm/cassette player with clock.

The car doesn't get driven much so the battery drains down while sitting. I know starting and driving more often would help but the owner is out of town several months at a time.

We believe the clock in the radio is the culprit. The display for the clock flickers so there is probably a short in the clock circuit.

Tried removing the fuse for the radio which does disable the radio but the clock still flickers. According to the manual there is a fuse for the clock but interior lights, horn and other items are on that circuit.

Looking for some advice or possibly where to get repaired or find a replacement .

Thanks
