If you can find the archives from the old motorola forums. There was
an in depth discusssion about this. The guy who did the flashlight
comparison for atpc was the lead ( i really wish i could name him,
hes the guy who walked me through our first, and best performing
900mhz site, his company tag was something like "covering 1800 square
miles with canopy" he was out of california i believe.)
The discussion got alot into the math and real physics of shadowing,
we were mounting on the leg of a 4 leg water tower in trees. We wanted
a solid mile of coverage and ended up with 10.
The gist was, there is a magic number betwen closeness and distance
dependent on the structure. It bled over to dslreports, if you can
stomach going over there. But the archives of the two have alot of
geek math. Close, or real far til you crink the windload, too far and
youre back in a bad shadow was what it boiled down to.

Used to use a bunch of Andrew/CommScope S-200 sidearms with
Cyclone 2450-360.15's mostly near the top of Rohn 25 and 45. 2'
stand off seemed to work fine.

<http://www.tiltek.com/doc/AppNote3.pdf> I'd try 2-3ft, far
enough to reduce pattern ripple and tower shadow but close enough
for some maintenance

How far from a leg of a Rohn 45 would you put a 2.4 omni to
prevent or minimize any kind of shadow effect? I believe the
omni we have is from KP Performance and the bracket will have
the antenna about a quarter inch from the leg and the top of
the tower is not available.
