Plans are to add a stack match.
Both antennas will be fed with 75 ohm hardline cut to proper length. Wire
antennas will also be located on this tower.
Will there be some pattern distortion due to different antenna spec's?
What are some problems that others have had in stacking two different
antennas such as these?

Anecdotal here:
>From what I've heard stacking dissimilar Yagis has been met with mixed
success. I'm not sure of the reasons. Boom length and phasing problems come
to
mind.
I've been stacking IDENTICAL antennas since the 80's and have always been
successful.
