The biggest problem is corrosion. Any oil burner generate a small, but 
significant amount of acid that will corrode your tower, antenna, rotor, etc. 
faster than away from the chimney. I have not seen any problems with soot.

I have limited options for placing my 40' tower
and tribander at my QTH.
One of
them is next to the 2 story house very near
the 33' chimney. Am wondering if
anyone has experience...soot affecting rotor
or antenna
parts?
