I had a similar situation with a 160 meter antenna close to a 40m beam 
and did see interaction. In my case it is a sideways 160 meter Vee with 
one end underneath a 2 element 40m beam. The 160 meter antenna is tuned 
with a remote tuner and has very narrow bandwidth. The interaction 
caused increased SWR on the 40m antenna dependent on the tuning of the 
160m antenna. I reduced the interaction by lowering the end of the 160m 
antenna farther below the 40.
