Why not just use your #73 core with 2 x 6 turns.  It's close enough to 800 for receive.

The ADT8-1T+ is a 50 ohm to 400 ohm transformer.
Two connected in series results in a 100 ohm to 800 ohm transformer.
If you instead connect the primaries in parallel, you would in
in principle have a 25 ohm to 800 ohm transformer.  That isn't
what Herb needs.
