Over what sort of time span... tenths of seconds, seconds, or minutes?

And, are the patterns of the two antennas comparable (i.e. you've got them 
out on that dead flat area in Galt) so you're looking at skywave variation 
on different paths, as opposed to the same wave going in and out of nulls 
on the antennas?
(I've noticed the latter with two crossed dipoles in the same location)
