This may help readers understand what the energy can be like on a nearby antenna. I was having a qso using my quarter wave inverted-L on 160 meters at 100 watts, and at the same time building a tuner. I went to connect the ladder line from my 80 meter loop that was not parallel to the L, but a wire from the loop crosses the L at 90 degrees about two feet above it at one point, otherwise nothing close. I got an RF burn that had me yelling. Not good separation, but I never considered the possibility of an RF burn with the separation I did have.
