The advantage to that particular cable is that it stands up particularly
well to the elements (and small rodents). Other than that, there's nothing
special about it -- any decent coax with good mechanical properties will
work just fine. 50 ohm cable will work too, although you may need another
turn or two on the high Z side of the transformer. Remember that loss in
that cable is really not an issue.
