Since the memory backup for the radio probably does not go through
the ignition switch it probably isn't that.

What I would do if it were my car is put a voltage meter on the
output of the alternator, and keep an eye on it. When the car does it's
thing next, see if the meter indicates a power loss. If not, then
reconnect the meter farther along the wiring from the alternator and
repeat the test. It may take a week of moving the meter around.
obviously you want a sensitive analong meter not some digital
display.

If you have a momentary drop at the alternator then it's probably that
part.
