No worries but ideally 2.4 antennas should be oriented and maintained in a fixed position that has them form a 90* relative separation. Using the ST-16 stick antennas as an example, angling each one 45* towards each outside end of the transmitter would form a 90* relative angle.
Of course that also presumes the antennas are are bent at the flex joint to assure the antenna tips are not forming a straight line path to the aircraft.
No omni antenna should ever have the tip of the antenna pointed at the aircraft as omni antennas have a “null” zone straight out from the end.
