If you look at the jkantennas site they have modeling results from Mid-Tri’s stacked with 35 foot spacing. 

They may have more results that are not on the website.

>> Depends on your terrain but 45’ is pretty low.  My lowest of 3 is at 36’ and it’s not very useful except maybe on 10.  I usually park it South to cover that direction and don’t use as a stack.  My top 2 are at 112 and 72.  They play well together or apart but the one at 72 seems the most useful all-around.
