Suggestions on OTA setup

Hi, My wife and I are looking to unload time warner cable and we are investigating antennas. We are located in central NY, about 5 miles south of the SE corner of Lake Ontario. The antenna will be mounted in our attic/crawlspace as my wife does not want an antenna on the roof. We would also like to pick up FM stations with it as well. Are there any dual-purpose antennas that would serve that purpose? Our fool reports are:

For the TV, we are mostly interested in the stations coming out of the SE and SW (Syracuse and Rochester). The Canadian stations would be nice, but not necessary.

The FM is a little trickier. Ideally, we would like a couple of the Canadian stations as well as the SE and SW ones. Specifically 96.3, CMFK-FM out of Kingston, ONT.

Would two separate antennas be better? Depending on the size of the antenna, I could utilize a rotor. I am also open to buying an amplifier. I don't want to say that money is no object, but I also am not on a tight budget.
Thanks for the advice!
