Wow... that RK05 must have been fun to get up there.
Ouch my back...
My 50" rack is:
VT340 (on top)

| shelf | (loose media, books)
+--------+
| RD/RX |

| 11/73 |

FYI: the bottom plate for my RX02 is steel so if the interference was
magnetic that may be a difference. It been this way for many years
with no issues.
Notes:
This is a very non-DEC config! Ir's a result of hybriding several
systems together to get the most in the minimum space.
The 11/73 is in a BA11 (s) box with a Micropdp-11 backplane mounted
for serpentine slots. That way it fits all the memory and IO.
The RL controller is RlV21 the single board version for RL drives.
The shelf above the RX02 with the RD/RX has several RD52s(2) and RX33.
It's a standard rack shelf with drives and a power supply for them and
the write/ready buttons from a BA123 as I use a RQDX3 and distribution
board from a BA123 as the disk interface.
