[TowerTalk] Room For Shorty Above TH11

I will be using a 15 ft reinforced double-wall 2" mast on top of my 72 ft
US Tower.  With a T2X turning it, I will have about 11 feet of the mast
extending out of the tower.  I will be mounting a TH11 at the base of the
mast.

Will I have enough room to stack a 2-el 40 meter shorty above the TH11?
What is the minimum distance I need to stack the shorty above the TH11?
How much room above the shorty do I need to allow for the shorty boom
supports?

I know this would be an easy install if I had a 20 ft mast, but I'm curious
if it is do'able with a 15.  ("No" is an acceptable answer.)

Thanks for your collective wisdom.

73, Dick
