  Ken, I had two W1JR  2mtr yagis (12' booms) up with a
6 meter beam (4 ele 12' boom) between them and had no
problems, I had the 2 meter beams spaced 3 1/2 feet above and
3  1/2 feet below the 6 meter beam.
  I  use GaAsfets on both 6 and 2  and have no problems with
excessive RF hurting anything, but I only run 250 w on 2 and 100 w
on 6 meters, with the power your talking about maybe it would be
better to be safe than sorry, I think I would be more concerned about
the 6 meter signal into the 2 meter front end than vice versa.
