Hmmmm..... six switches.... could that equal 6 banks of 64k?  I hate to
guess at this.

I see that minuszerodegrees has a page on AST cards with plenty of options
for switches, but which one might represent mine?

It's an inexpensive 384K AST clone card. I don't recall what the switches do
other than set the size of the memory. (ie 64K, 128K, 384k, etc).
