Thanks - 

I found the DS and downloaded it.

Now, all I'm missing is U1, U3, and U14.

The Basic ROM chip (depending on what model of CoCo you have) is an 8K
chip, compatible with a 68766 EPROM (24 pins).  That's the case if you see
an Extended Basic ROM nearby, or a socket for one.  Some CoCo 2s have both
Color Basic and Extended Basic in a single 16K chip, possibly a 28-pin one
compatible with the 27128 EPROM..
