[TowerTalk] Coax Type

I am installing two antennnas (402CD and an A4)  in two different trees
that are about 50 feet apart and 250 feet from the shack.  Total length to
each of the antennas will be 300 and 350 feet.  My questions are 

1.  What type of coax should I use?  Is 350 feet to far for RG213 or RG8?

2.  If I use a switch box any suggestions on a manufacturer?

Thanks in advance
