KGM
I have just bought a CRT Xenon, Sirio Performer Red Devil fighter P5000 Antenna and a D135 SWR meter.
It's mainly for in the car, but I'd like to use it in my shed sometimes so what size amp should I get? 

3 -5amp
5-7amp 

or something else?

The power supply in the top photo should be fine for the Xeon.......it has a 5 amp (constant) rating so that will be ok for that particular radio. As mentioned by Nubster above though, if you buy a SSB radio in the future you will need something bigger, probably at least 20 amps because they have a much larger current requirement.
