The ROM jumpers labeled 64/128 should be set for the 64k ROM and the ROM
might be a 24 pin unit in the 28 pin socket. You will need to change them
for the 27128 EPROM. IIRC there is one jumper or solder pad to upgrade the
RAM from 16k to 64k. This one might also have 8 16 pin locations lacking
sockets. Unless there are socketed 16k by 1 chips the easy upgrade is 64k
by 4 chips from an upgraded CoCo 3 replacing the two 16k by 4 chips. The
64k satellite boards that use the white sockets are rare. Most
people/CoCoNuts have not even seen one. I have two! ;)
