radio harness/ pwr antenna question

Anyone know why is there a wire for the power antenna in the radio's Power harness, if the power antenna is operated by a separate switch?

The only orange/blue wire in the EVTM is from the radio/tape player to the Amp when you have premium sound. It also goes to the graphic equalizer if you have that.
The power antenna switch and the radio are on the same keyed power source, the yellow/ black wire.
