The PAL Ham 10 series came about later, after the CB amp crackdown was "coming".
Before that, PAL electronics used to market their amps as multi-band by selling different plate coils.
Yeah, I'm going to pull over and replace the plate coil in my 350MDX while going cross country. What a lame idea in a multiband amp.
The HAM-10's, if memory serves me well, where designed as "mono-band".
Your amp can do a LOT of PEP power. Keep it around 900 watts PEP, and you won't be digging into the wallet all the time
Tube replacement sucks.
The 150/750 switch is the hi-low switch. It removes a stage, but for the life of me, I can't remember if it kicks the finals out, or the driver, ah la Palomar 300A/350Z. Most of the PAL amps where pretty much direct copies of something Palomar, but ...... If it removed the driver, that would be GREAT, enabling you to use a 2970 type 100 watt radio to drive it.... But be careful, some of them only removed the finals (like the big Glen, Golden Falcon and Loudmouth amps).... If that's the case, then your hitting the drivers with full power, instead of just the final chain.
Firestick (about 5 - 10 years ago) was still VERY responsive about PAL electronics requests. I have a lot of them... San Diego had a LOT of PAL and Palomar tube stuff running around, they where local (pretty much) companies. Give Firestick a call and see if you can find someone willing to dig through the archives... If that doesn't work, send in a written request. Mine have always been answered... Sometimes it took months, but I at least got a "sorry, we couldn't do it for reason xxx"... Good people. No wonder they are still in business.
Hope you like that amp. Good box, VERY heavy duty, and a direct clone of the Palomar 1000.... Now, how many people have seen THAT amp... Looked like the Skipper line, but was a 9 or 10 (depending on vintage... they only made it for a short time) tuber
**edit** Forgot to add... Sometimes the driver control is located inside the amp... Very nice way to do it, lol. So, if you can't locate a cap adjustment on the back of the amp, pop the covers off and look around inside for a cap around the drive tubes that you can adjust... Sometimes (rarely this long do they still exist) they have a thumb screw type knob on them, but usually not... A compression cap is what you will more than likely be looking for, like dulaney used in his amps.
