I doubt it. My DTV dish is 15' under my 15M dipole (NVIS height for the HALO Net), and 30' from my HF2V Butternut and I have seen no interaction either way.  For a while I had my 2M VHF antenna on the same mount and saw none then either.

  My new neighbor, a football coach, just installed a DirectTV dish
  approximately 30 feet from the site of my tower, and approximately 12 feet
  up.  My tower was going to be approximately 40' tall, with a tribander, 2M
  beam and 6M beam on top.  This means that the dish will be 39' away from the
  mast, and aiming directly at my beam.

  Am I hosed?
