George,
The 100' spacing of the base of the antennas is from the central tower to
each base, so any two opposed bases will be 200' apart...  I use a treated
4X4 X10' wood pole to mount relays, etc., inside of tupper ware boxes...
Yes, the elements lean in at the top to the tower..   In my current version
I put a wood pole out the top of the tower to mount the halyard pulleys and
to straighten the leaning elements a bit, which raises the impedence a
hair...
