I think it's a mistake to run the same cable for 270ft for this application.
I would run the lowest loss you can afford for the main run - LDF4 or LMR600
and then shift to a more flexible cable at the tower - LMR400flex or worst
case RG213.

 

I run 3 sets of coaxes for my systems.  LDF5 from the shack to the switching
at the towers.  LDF4 from there to the stack matches and them LMR400flex
from the stack matches to the beams.
