First, use Google.com for easy inquiries such as this (I did to get your
answer)

Glenn Pladsen, AE0Q, and Alpha Power, Inc. have the Alpha 86 manual on the
BAMA web site
http://bama.sbc.edu/alpha.htm

Printed original copies of Alpha legacy manuals are still available from
Alpha/Power for these and other Alpha models.
All Alpha legacy manuals are $24.00 plus shipping and handling.
Manuals for the Alpha 99 and 87A (models in current production) are now
$49.00 (they have been rewritten).
You can place your order at (303)473-9232.
Be sure to visit Alpha/Power's web site where you will find WARC band and
other information related to the older amplifiers.
