If you're not transmitting, you don't need a low loss coax.
mini 8 will work or 58/u or rg8, whatever blows your skirt up.

Right- if you don't care about Signal/Noise- then use anything you
want.But if you want to preserve the best possible S/N, then use the
lowest loss coax you can afford.

you sure don't need to lay out money for LMR400. Just going from rg58 to rg8
or mini 8 would do it.
