Saw that. The article shows good balance with his resistive test, but doesn't say much about efficiency mismatched.

Cores I dealt with working in EMC were usually Fair-Rite 44 or Steward/Laird 28, not especially low-loss cores either, but quite common at Hamfests. I might see what I can do to replicate the design with 4:1 Ruthroff followed by a 1:1 Guanella.
