PAL F->G hack
It is possible to trick an F into behaving like a G with a jumper wire. You need to lift pin 7 of PAL3 so it doesn't go into the socket and solder a jumper wire from pin 7 to pin C13 of connector CN3. This works on all revisions.
PAL F->G hack, later model B boards
With 93646B-6 and 93646B-7, you can simply lift pin 7 and solder a jumperwire to pin 9.
PAL version cheat-sheet
