No, they're not touching. One wire is torqued backwards toward the mast, the other is torqued forwards. There's about an inch clearance between each wire.
The main reason I went with this antenna is the ease and cost of testing out the signals. I didn't want to get too far into the project ($) to find out I can't pull stations from both directions. But, after this test, I don't mind spending more money on a better antenna if the data supports it.
