Hi Graham it basically doesnt matter too much
:-))
The thing is to get as much wire as high as
possible. Yes fold it back, meander it....spacings less than about 2 feet dont
add much over a single wire. Drop the end if you have to but remember this may
reduce the signal slightly in that direction....but it will increase slightly
the capacity to ground. be careful of the dropped ends they are high voltage
points and may not be "family friendly" ...... doubling the capacity to
ground ( note ground....not lossy roofs/foliage underneath) will probably halve
you ground losses. It will do very little to increase the radiation
resistance.
Your diagram is difficult to read but running one
of the wires directly under another will be of no benefit and may be worse than
not having it......horizonltal spread is what you want, so pull it at least 2
feet aside before folding it back.......I think you get the idea.
