It depends HOW the unit mixes the two sognals together, if they are just
passively mixed then there is no difference between

Aerials       Distribution Amp

88-108 >>>>> FM>>>>\
\
+>>>>>> 88-108 + 470-860 for distribution
/
470-860>>>>> UHF>>>/


Aerials       Distribution Amp

FM input not used     FM>>>>\
\
+>>>>>> 88-108 + 470-860 for distribution
FM and TV premixed           /
88-108 + 470-860>>>>> UHF>>>/

If however, there are Bandpass filters on the inputs then the out of band
signal would not get through in which case split them first and feed them
into the repescive inputs.
