PRINT MEM
 30953

Btw, there is a strange hack, 2 components 1 on top of the other (near the
memory chips)

There is a NOR between a signal and E 

Probably to correct a conception bug

Do a PRINT MEM.  You should get 22824.

You need to upgrade it to Extended Color Basic. I didn't know Radio Shack
were still selling Color Basic systems by the time the CoCo2 came out.
