both wp-1 and wp-2 are not coco 3 compatible as they use ff98 address. only wp-rs runs on cc3.
wp-1 has a rom in it for decb support

It appears to me that there were at least three variants of the PBJ 
Word-Pack.  1: with single composite output jack for the CoCo 1 & 2,  2: 
with an composite input jack that connected to a composite output added 
onto the CoCo 1 or 2, and the described CoCo 3 compatible "Tandy" 
variant.  The reason for #2 was that if you were connected to a 
composite monitor without a separate TV monitor you were typing blind 
until you got the program(s) running that initialized the Word-Pack.  
Somewhere in the depths of my midden heap I have version 2.
