There is not enough information in your post to answer the question.  Much 
of it depends on where else the 40m beam is resonant.  If the 40m beam uses 
loaded elements, it may not be resonate on any band that the TH-11DX is.  If 
you turn it 90 degrees one of the booms and any connected uninsulated 
elements may be resonate and cause interaction to the other antenna.

I would rather point them in the same direction. The 2 ele for 40 will be 10
feet above the TH-11DX. Anyone have any experience with this? VE9HF
