Has the Cavendish experiment ever been done using 4 masses of the SAME size?

Instead of 2 large masses and 2 smaller masses on the torsion balance.

yes, the experiment has been done to some really intresting limits with many many different setups.

My only experience was with equal size masses. That allows the product Mm/r^2 to be maximized for more vigorous response.
