    C connector, HN, or even RG214 with connectors will work fine 
(commercial TX often use RG214 for 8kv in the States).  Otherwise buy a 
Millen connector & use HV cable- about $20-35 US on Ebay, but cheaper at 
hamfests.  If you use one of the RF coax connectors, just make damn sure you 
mark it as such in the event an unknowledgeable person decides it it an RF 
line...

    See you soon on 50 MHz TEP!
