Chris already got the syntax error.

I'll just note you do not need both the include
and the exclude lines.  The "include" says these
are the only things to backup.

If "comp-coyote-tar" has any common excludes (like
temp files or ???) the exclude above would replace
them.  If you want to retain the excludes, you may
want to make them "exclude append" to add to any
default exclude.

What if you create a "Gene" or a "123go" or a ".save"
file or directory under PublicA?  Your 3 DLEs would
not back them up.  I usually add a "catchall" DLE.
In your case it might be:
