Is the 40m at a right angle to the 17m, or is the V separation
adequate?

The 40 is not at right angles. Only shifted horizontally enough to clear the
tree trunks and find suitable anchors for the ends. Vertically, there might
be 30 degrees separation, since the ends of the 17 go up, and the ends of
the 40 come down

Since you have to trim the lengths slightly (lowest frequency first), it
is

That is because the 40 has more effect on the 17 than the 17 does on the 40.
I am using a 1:1 balun. Not sure if that affects anything or not.

simplest to run EZNEC or some other simulation first.

Thanks muchly for that,
