Although I am comeing to the party a little late, let me add a brief note on my
experience.  Until recently I had a Christmas tree of yagis similar to what you
describe below.  It consisted of a HyGain 204BAS with a 4 element wilson 15 mx
yagi 8 feet above it.  Similarly a 4 el 10 mx Wilson was located 8 feet above
the 15 mx yagi.  Results?  It worked fine on 20 and 10.  However, the 15 mx
yagi was detuned rather severely with the 1:1 swr point well outside the bottom
end of the band.
