Dennis,
The station is being built for M/S, M/2 and SO2R operation, including in-band. So I'd answer your question with 'much of the time'.

How often will you be transmitting and receiving at the same time?

I'm planning to put RX coax runs in one of the conduits, TX runs (Heliax) in two of the others and control cable in the 4th run. So RX runs will at best be 4-20 RG6 cable diameters from the Heliax. Does that sound like enough separation from your experience?
