Ted,

Belden once made a 300-ohm shielded twinlead for such purposes and to allow
it to be taped directly to a tower or mast without standoffs. I see it
occasionally at hamfests and on eBay. 

Others have used parallel coax with the shields tied together and grounded
and use the two center conductors as the feedline. Might be a good use of 93
ohm RG62/u.
