Hello all. Would anyone happen to have a spare fuse that goes on the T/R  
board in an early model Alpha 86? I was wanting to keep one spare here just in  
case I ever needed it but Alpha tells me that the type my 86 has is no longer  
available. I would rather find an original rather than pull the board and 
change  the fuse socket as suggested by Alpha.

I had an 86 some 4 years ago; gave up the fuse battle and sold it.   While I 
owned it, had the same problem getting fuses.  My solution was not  elegant, 
but worked just fine.  I got fuses of the proper value, but  in a simple axial 
lead form. I shortened the leads, bent them at right angles to  the fuse body, 
and inserted the leads in the socket.  
 
Sorry, but I don't recall the specific part # and source, but it was easy  to 
find.
