[TowerTalk] VHF-UHF Stacking distances

[Marc Tessier - VE3TES]

Purhaps I did not make myself clear enough, as usual...HiHi!!!
I have one yagi that is an 11 ele for 435Mhz and one yagi that is an 11 
Element for 144Mhz, both yagis will be mounted on an old boom from an old 
11M yagi I Have here, I would like to know just how far apart to place both 
yagis, I know the E plane in degrees for both yagis, how can I convert that 
information into a distance I can understand?...
