Connecting loft aerial direct to tv...

Hi,

Is there any danger of connecting my high gain loft aerial directly to my tv as opposed to connecting first to an aerial wall outlet?

http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=958&doy=15m7&C=SEO&U=strat15


The reason i ask is because there is normally a small circuit on the back of aerial wall outlets and not sure if this is a safey element which is required?

Thanks.
Filiss

    In fact it should be better as these faceplates are not always very well screened and it's another connection that will give some attenuation.
