I use the T1-1T-65X - 6 pin DIP package 200 kHz to 80 MHz - it's 1:1 with a

You have a typo in the component name - it's "X65", not "65X", but great find!
Oops, yes..
I used those because I had an application where I wanted to be able to change the turns ratio, so I have a 6 pin DIP socket, and I can plug in the T1, the T4 (2:1), or the T16 (4:1).
And it's easier to solder to DIP pins if you're dead bugging it, than to some tiny SMT pad.
As someone mentioned minicircuits does have a minimum order, so one might need to do some scrounging around for a source or alternate parts if you only want one or two.
