K1VR: My recollection of the stacking curves in the W2PV book is that
they are very gentle. My experience is that you don't want the bottom
Yagi in a stack too low. I don't know a reason why either option above
should be preferred, but it can certainly be modeled. Me? I'd move the
entire stack up seven feet, but more for symmetry than any other reason.
I'd model first.
