Bad weather and bad signal issues

Hi, New here but looking for help.

Our main TV setup is currently getting signal problems in bad weather (rain mostly). Whenever the PVR is ON in bad weather, the TV loses signal completely. If we switch off the PVR the TV regains signal. Below is a diagram of the setup.

Aerial ==> OneClick Surge Protector ==> Sony PVR ==> Sony Bravia TV

From previous experience I do not want to use a signal booster (apparently we are too cloase to the mast for on to be effective)

Any help sorting this out would be much appreciated.

What happens if you temporarily take the surge protector out of the system and thus go aerial->PVR-> TV ?
Do you still lose signal when the PVR is on in poor weather ?
