I wanted to give my thanks to Stephen Adolph for tracing down the bank 
selection pin on the NEC main board. After some testing and a small bit of 
soldering I can confirm it works. For mine I have SARDOS on Bank 1 and UR-2 on 
Banks 2&3.

For those interested in this modification the instructions are below.

1) Solder a wire to the underside of pin 15 on U53. You will need a couple 
inches of wire. I used AWG 26 wire.
2) Replace the 27C256 32k EPROM with a 27C512 64k EPROM. The lower 32k will be 
the EPROM for bank 1 and the upper 32k will be the EPROM for banks 2 & 3. (I 
have the binary image if anybody wants to make one)
3) Bend pin 1 of the 27C512 EPROM out so that it wont go into the socket.
4) Solder the wire from U53 to pin 1 of the 27C512 EPROM.
5) Insert the EPROM into the socket making sure pin 1 is clear

Cold start the machine and you now have 2 ROMs to work with, each with it's own 
bank of memory. Enjoy.

Thanks again Steve!

Kurt
