Lots of good advice has been given here.  The SWR-related coax losses on 
60-10 meters will be negligable with decent coax (I use 1/2" Heliax, but 
LMR-400 is almost as good), especially with your short run.  I use my K3 
internal tuner for these bands.  For 160- and 80-meters, I have a 
remote-switched base matching system that works great.  Info on this is in 
the "Articles" section of my website at www.ad5x.com.
