Fields, if you are using a radio with the standard "A" and "G" antenna connections, the 75 ohm coax will work fine. Connect the center conductor to the "A" terminal and the shield to the "G". At the other end of the coax, connect one antenna wire to the inner conductor and the other to the shield.

In this instance you are not matching impedance but more using the coax as a shielded cable to minimize local interference pickup. Try to keep the coax length as short as possible.
