Alpine radio doesn't power up all the time.

Last week i started my truck, but my Alpine radio did not come on. About 15 minutes later the radio suddenly worked and was fine for several days. This morning i sarted the truck and again the radio did not come on until i drove about 20 minutes. I noticed alot of moisture around the antenna outside but i've had that before and the radio worked.. Could there be a short somewhere?

I forgot to mention i have satellite hook-up if that is an issue.

I had a similar problem with my old Alpine. When I would push on the face, it would come on. I think the contacts on the back of the face plate were dirty. If your face pulls off, take it off and clean the connections with some electrical cleaner, or if nothing else, use a pencil eraser and clean the contacts with that.
