Well, I think the case is solved. You folks collectively hit the nail on the head. John Hagen and John T identified the specific issue, the load wire was on the wrong side. Now battery is on one post and the load and alternator output is on the other post. Amp Meter reads as expected. After exciting alternator the voltage across the battery reads 14+ and most any RPM. I suspect that amp meters can and do have a personality and may be sticky also.
I want to thank everyone for advice, much appreciated. You can view the tractor anther farm equipment on my website --- www.chaselinks.com.
My farm is in northeast Connecticut and has been in my family since c1860. I grew up on the dairy farm but after college I moved away for 40+ years working in corporate America in the global technology business. Now back on the farm as a retired hobby farmer raising horse hay (sq bales) and geese/ducks, as well as a tractor enthusiast and hack mechanic. All much more rewarding than the computer technology business.
