Yellow should be switched power (accessory and run) and orange should be hot at all times for the memory.

I'm looking at a 1980 Chevy factory manual, all I see is yellow and orange, even with power antenna. Only blue is a light and dark blue for a rear speaker. Unless we are talking about something different.

if the OEM harness was intact you could have picked up an adapter harness from a car stereo shop to match the radio to the car...you could use a test lite to find the accessory lead
