Too me that looks correct.
If you use enameled CU wire be careful if the edges of the core are sharp, then
might scratch the insulation open.
I use an antenna analyzer to verify my transformers once they're done and
mounted into their housing. Just put the 900 ohm resistor on the loop side of
the transformer an measure the impedance on the coax side.
