The greatest amount of interaction would be between the feedlines!
Why not ONE zepp antenna between the two towers and use open-wire
feedline and a tuner?

Quoting k7awbgoog@gmail.com:
I have 135 feet between my two towers and might put two dipoles or
double bazookas between them, end to end using one rope. I would
drop the feed lines straight down to the ground. Probably one would
be 40 meters and the other 30 meters since I don?t have antennas
for those bands up yet and I need a quick job to start working the
rash of DXpeditions now that I miss on those two bands. The two
antennas take up about 105-117 feet or so horizontally so I would
have 13-30 feet of rope to distribute between the middle and the two
ends.
Is there any interaction between the two wire antennas put end to
end? Does it matter how close they are to each other?
I would use 1:1 baluns for each so there would be some weight up
there and a catenary curve to all of it.
Since my towers are in line at 305 degrees towards Japan, the wire
antennas would face EU and ZL-VK land.
Any thoughts on this?
