Do you not have access to the conlanglinks page? It has a link to
a very handy image of the standard IPA chart with the X-SAMPA symbols
overlaid in blue.
Unrounded /u/ is /M/. Unrounded /o/ is /7/.
The other back unrounded vowels are /V/ (unrounded /O/) and /A/ (unrounded Q).
/U/ is central-back and closer-mid; it's not part of a pair on the chart, so
I don't know if it's supposed to be rounded or not, but it's usually
given as the vowel in English "put", which for me is rounded.
