Is there any modifications that need to be done to this amplifier to make it work good on 11 meter or will this amplifier work great on the 10 meter setting?

My palomar 300-A needs to be re-tubed. The tubes in it are at about 70% right now. Would I be able to buy the 6KG6's that Copper sells for replacements for the 6KD6's that are in it?

The palomar300a requires a certain size tube to fit into the case.I dont think the 6KG6 tube is most likely too tall not to mention I think it takes a different tube socket.

the 6kd6,6lf6,6lb6,6lx6,6mh6 tubes that are in it are 12 pin tubes and the el-509 6kg6 tubes are 9 pin tubes. you might get lucky and find a cheap set on the net or if you can afford it you can buy them new.
