there have been many a time when the fuse "looks OK" but is not.
the blades can lose contact at the fuse box,due to weather,moisture,just plain age..etc.
Try replacing them.
If your car has had a previous owner you may want to see(somehow) if the radio was re-installed before you bought it.

Make sure the Radio, Cigar and Room fuses are good. A continuity test will confirm if the fuse is good or not.
