what mix are the cores?
You need ALL those impedance ratios? That's going to be a challenge.
The impedance ratio is (N1/N2)^2...
so a turns ratio of 2:1 makes a 4:1 transformer, 50:12.5 ohms
A ratio of 3:2 gets you 2.25:1, 50:22
You could probably put 6-10 turns for each side, and find some
combination that gets close, but somehow, I don't think that will get
what you're really looking for.
What's the feedpoint impedance of the antenna? 90 ft is moderately close
to a quarter wavelength, and you say it's top loaded, so maybe your
feedpoint impedance isn't all that far off 30-50 ohms?
