Remember that BASIC ROM and KERNAL ROM in the C64 are not 'next' to each other. There is a 8 KB gap between them. So in order to select the correct 8 KB block in the 23128 ROM, you can't use A13. It would be HIGH at $A000-$BFFF and $E000-$FFFF. But you can use A14 since that is LOW at $A000-$BFFF and HIGH at $E000-$FFFF. Also, _CS for that ROM is already a combination of _BASIC and _KERNAL done by using an AND gate from a 74LS08.
