Here's the table from the EIA/RAM Combo Board Installation Guide:

RAM        W1     W2     W3     Rows Populated with ICs
-------------------------------------------------------
0.0       OFF    OFF    OFF     NONE
0.5       OFF     ON     ON     5 and 6
1.0        ON    OFF     ON     7 through 10
1.5        ON     ON    OFF     5 through 10

It really works.  I upgraded mine in steps, so I know that these
jumper settings work.
