"then hooked up the abc 250 plus tube amp..radio to meter,meter to amp,antenna to correct side of the amp..seemed correct hopefully."
You can not read the output of your amp with the meter at the input.

im trying to learn so please help if im hooked up wrong.
i have the radio hooked to ant side of meter...tx side of meter to amp,and rg8 coax to ant side of the amp.and have no more power reading on meter than with just the cb,but assumed it was because of the center tube not getting juiced like the rest?please set me straight..sorry but im trying ..
the amp keys up with all radios and everytime i try,just having a problem with the center tube /socket not getting blueish like the other 4 tubes when keyed.explaned better below.
heres the amp with pics in idle and when keyed..
