The only difference between LP and NG orifices is the hole size. However, you cannot tell the difference with the naked eye as the difference is pretty small. But if they did give you the wrong jets, it would explain everything. You can check the orifice diameter by getting a wire gauge drill bit set (like this) and checking for yourself.
NG doesn't use a regulator, at least not one near your roaster, as the pressure is dictated by what comes into your building and what the local gas company has set the pressure to. Since you are getting 11 inches, that ought to be enough, but maybe not. You should get a good variable pressure regulator (like this) and dial it up to 22 inches. A bbq regulator may provide the pressure but it's got a small diaphragm regulator that might freeze up under high flow conditions.
Also, what does your flame look like? Check the flame color charts to make sure it's right. (Google it.)
Amazon.
I have:
Generic Hobby Knife - Generic hobby knife kit. Blades were shit so I buy Xacto brand but the knives and case are good.
Needle Files - Extremely useful for polishing off mold lines or smoothing cuts.
Adjustable Jeweler's Saw - Handles a ton of different size blades for cutting metal, plastic, or wood.
Swivel Handle Pin Vice - Probably the best tool you can buy. Great for customizing what your troops are carrying.
Third Hand - Stupidly useful. Mostly for gluing.
Jeweler's Saw Blades - Bought these for my saw. Useful. Others might be better.
Micro Drill Bits - Bought for my pin vice. Useful. Others might be better.
Mini Drill Bits - Bought for my pin vice. Useful. Others might be better.
1: Dremels create high speed, but not torque. They heat the metal (to the point of minor burns), skip across surfaces and get stuck. For Drilling into metal minis, you want torque and pressure. I went BACK to hand drills after having too many lockups, overheated models and dulled bits.
2: Speaking of dulled bits, this is one of the most common reasons for lack of performance. Either find a way to sharpen your itty bitty bits, or have a stock of them on hand; I change mine regularly.
Start with a bit index like the one below, and get spares of the ones you find yourself using the most.

3. Lastly, the KIND of hand drill you use can make a huge difference; try to find a ball-end type grip; something like this:

The ball rests in your palm and allows you to better exert/control pressure on the drill bit and stabilized the whole process. It's also MUCH more comfortable on your hand.
Hope this helps!
Edit: If you're using paperclips to pin, i find #64 or #63 bits are best for the average small paperclip.
