The antenna has an impedance of 300 ohms but the APS-9 website says that the matching balun is included. Be sure to use it.

In my opinion, using anything as fat as RG-11 coax is not worth the hassle for your application unless you're running extra long distances. As someone already suggested, a high quality RG6U type coax (commonly used in cable TV cable applications) is more than sufficient.

For antenna supplies you might visit my favorite online HAM Radio store.
