Only if coax is not practical. Assuming a matched load (resonant 
antenna), you'll need transformers on each end to get from the low Z of 
the matched load to the line, and from the line to the rig. Those 
transformers are not lossless. :)

And if it's not a low Z matched load, it's not practical to choke it to 
kill noise, which was the reason for the long run in the first place.
