If you run into overload problems you can still add a UVSJ ahead of the CPA-19 with the UHF port terminated by a 75 ohm 'F' terminator cap. That would suppress the UHF power received by the VHF antenna another 20 dB or more.
The UVSJ used to combine the signals from both antennas would need to pass power through the VHF port or be located downstream of the CPA-19 power insertion block (which needs protection from the elements, it's designed for indoor installation).

Thanks! That got me thinking - what about using an actual attenuator like:
