Rick,
The coax is 1/2 wave length, forming a half-wave balun which steps up
the 50 ohm feedline impedance to the 200 ohm feedpoint impedance of the
40M329. Strictly speaking, the coax impedance is irrelevent, but 50
ohms is what I believe the original Telrex documentation called for and
should certainly work fine.
