Help with FM antenna/combining it on existing mast with TV antenna

I am interested in checking out the Winegard HD-6000 FM antenna and pairing it with a Channel Master CM7777 Preamp to receive maximum FM reception in my area.

I currently use OTA for television only; and I've got a Winegard 9095P with a Winegard 269 preamp for TV. This antenna and preamp sits on top of a 30 ft mast on the side of my house (eve mount). The existing TV antenna clears the roof line by about 5 feet.

So if I invest in the FM antenna (and replace my existing preamp) with the the CM7777 (which has dual connecters for UHF and VHF/FM), will I likely get any interference? My biggest concern is maintaining what I've got on OTA television. I am concerned that maybe I don't have enough footage below the Winegard 9095P to install this FM antenna below my existing Winegard 9095P (with only 5 feet above the roof line). I should add that my Winegard 9095P is on a rotator so if I add a Winegard HD-6000 for FM radio; I've got to stay above the roof line.

Any suggestions? I appreciate any feedback.
