Need a new TV aerial; I note Screwfix sell different models for 'strong'
and 'weak' signal areas. AFAIK we're in a fairly OK area, but my
question is, is there any disadvantage in fitting the 'weak signal' type
if it might not be necessary? Otherwise it's clearly not worth even
considering paying two quid less for the 'strong' variety?

Yes. The signal may be too strong for your telly and cause reception
problems..

However, if it causes problems it's easily solved by adding an
attenuator to the download. A couple of quid each from Maplin)
