[CQ-Contest] Two Towers, Two Tribanders - Coax Length for Stack Match?

If the towers are being used for spraying in different directions there is
no need to equal length coax.

I'm in the process of putting up a second tower which will have stacked
tribanders. These 3 tribanders will be fed via a Stack Match with equal
lengths of coax.

My current tower also has a tribander.

I plan on installing a stackmatch II switch between the two towers for quick
direction changing or spraying my signal in 2 directions.

Is it worth the trouble to use equal length feed lines? If I use what I
currently have one feed line will be 278' and the other will be 140'.

Thanks
