I agree with Jim.  You didn't mention how long the runs would be only
that the tower is 60 and the shack is just below it, so what, about
100' per run.  And you didn't mention what bands or power levels.

However, "ASSUMING" they are all HF, I'd go with with LMR 400 flex all
the way since the runs aren't all that long.  I have 100' of LMR 400
between my Comet CX-333 <144/222/440> and the FT-736 and I can hit our
clubs UHF repeater 10 miles away with just milli-watts.
