Is there such a thing? In general there's little point, because the sensitivity of your radio is already as good as these things can get (within a factor of 2-3). If your radio has poor sensitivity, then it would probably be cheaper and easier to replace it.
The problem with an amp at the antenna is that it has to be a wide band amp which means that it works from 0.5 to 108 MHz (which is TOUGH!) and it will still be amplifying both signal and noise. So your radio is still responsible for sorting out the signal from the noise. In the end, there's usually little advantage.
And if it didn't get power, you'dd receive neither AM nor FM.
