teh 6309 was Hitachi's variant of the 6809. It has an expanded
instruction set and two more accumalators that canbe concacted into a
16 bit register like the D register. Also the D adn W can form a 32
bit register.

Sory that I am n ot up to date to much with the variants and which do
which. I don't use OS9 all that much anymore. Mosto fwhat I used the
CoCO 3 for is done is RSBASIC. 

None that I know of will do 28 lines. That is is pushing the limits of
what the GIME chip can do for the CoCo 3.
