Comparing your TVF report to your 'must have' list; The weakest signal is the NBC affiliate WVIT-35 @ 305° mag. Next higher is CBS - WSFB-33 @ 321°.
Those two signals are virtually the same in predicted strength, an 8-bay panel antenna such as the 4228 (or AD DB-8 or Winegard HD8800 or AC U8000) facing about 310° - 315° mag. would provide reliable reception with a reasonable fade margin. This antenna would also receive FOX - WTIC-31 and a PBS station.
I would take a different approach regarding VHF and FM. To receive ABC - WTNH-10, aim an Antennacraft Y5713 at 256° mag.
The Antennacraft 10G221 preamplifier has inputs for separate UHF and VHF antennas. It also has a switchable FM trap which I would mak use of.
For FM, I would install a separate FM-only antenna and separate coax run. You may find the performance of the FM antenna acceptable if mounted in the attic... it's worth a try.
The TV antennas need to be outside in the clear.
