I'll continue to recommend an outdoor antenna as opposed to an attic mounted solution.
Re. multiple antennas in the attic; If you can place the antennas so one is not in front of the other, this may work. You should strive to maintain at least 4' of separation form other metal, so if you're mounting one above the other... you need to maximize the distance, at least 4'.
Metal pipe, roof flashing, duct work, etc will all skew the antenna's pattern (aim). This effect can vary from one channel to another.
If you are not using the satellite receiver as your terrestrial OTA/DTV receiver, I would recommend you run the OTA antenna separate of the satellite coax. The losses in the Satellite/TV diplexers are not great, but if they can be avoided, avoid them. Both your OTA and satellite receivers will be that much better off.
If you connect the RS antenna to the VHF port of the UVSJ, the UHF capacity of the RS antenna will be blocked. All of your UHF reception will be the responsibility of the antenna connected to the UHF port of the UVSJ. If it will fit, a single maximum performance combination antenna still seems more viable to me.
