if the two antennas are covering the same RF bands but are pointed in different directions, they will be picking up a different image of the reflected RF for each station / transmitter.In this case combining them would be a bad idea.
Even if they are pointed in the same 'best' direction you still need to space them on the mast 5ft minimum and add a phasing harness, made from the coax cableso they 'add' when together.
