I made the mistake of assuming one would not be stupid enough to run 275
feet of RG58.

Sounds like too much work! The loss of 50 Ohm feedline at 80 and 40
meters
isn't worth worrying about.

For 275 ft. of RG-58 with an SWR of 1:1 on 40m, one would lose
~half of one's power in the feedline. With an SWR of 10:1, one
would lose ~75% of one's power in the feedline.
