Won't those elements be awful close together on the back of the antenna?
I assume this distance will work for any antenna that receives CH. 7 and not just the YA 1713?

Yes, that's a problem. One option is to use 3/2 wave length on the vector toward KOAM which would make the parallel boom spacing 93 3/8". (Do I hear an 'OUCH'?)
