Lights Control Television Reception
We are camping in a place where we can receive 18 over the air television stations using our Antenna and booster that came installed on our camper. If we don't use the booster, we get nothing. I guess...

SoundGuy is right. If you don't supply power to the preamplifier in the antenna head, you won't receive any signals because an unpowered amplifier won't pass anything.
My trailer came with all LED lights on the ceiling. They have a switch mode regulator in each fixture and if we turn any of the lights in the vicinity of the roof top antenna, they will wipe out several TV stations. If your fan has a speed control on it, it may be spewing as much Radio Frequency Interference as the lights (if they are LEDs). Hope this helps you understand whats happening and no, I haven't figured out how block the interference yet.
