No real reason that you have to use hardline....I use it because it is self 
supporting, and easier to solder (teflon), and waterproof.

I made one for another fellow on a sailboat, and I used coax inside 
of  copper tubing for the infinite balun feed.  Just make sure you seal 
against moisture...it will work just as well..

Pse let me know if you have any questions...
