Default where to get N connectors

I need a female N bulkead connector, the kind with a flange with four
holes. I don't want to pay $7 shipping on a $3 item. Is there a place
in New York City where I can buy them?

Probably in the village, Eh?? I realize the yellow book for NYC is normally
used as a weapon but this time read it under Amatuer Radio Supplies. Give
them a call, probably a local number. Eh?

Find a store that stocks "Ham Radio" supplies ... there's bound to be
one ... even in NYC.

The problem with getting completely useless replies like "Oh, there
must be a store that sells it" and "Why don't you just look in the
Yellow Pages" is just that other people who read these postings will
get the feeling that the question has been answered, and I won't get
any meaningful responses.
Well, there are no more Amateur Radio store left in New York City,
believe it or not -- else why would I have posted? I have been a ham
for twenty years and lived in New York City just as long -- I should
know.
I would GREATLY prefer that you netizens would let my post die in
oblivion, without a single response, than get worthless replies. So
shut up. Unless you know where I can get N connectors locally.


Aren't there any local/regional web-based, or email-list-based
swaplists? It might pay to drop a WTB in one or more of'em.
Like me, I'm confidant that some ham in your area has a peanut-butter
jar full of'em.

Ever hear of MCM Electronics in Ohio, or are you totally restricted to NYC.
www.mcminone.com Being an active HAM for over 20 years should have at least
intorduced you to this company 73s (now take your QRM and stuff it!)

Order them online and be sure to select a quality brand name, or get
adventureous and find a hamfest in your area.

Most local/regional amateur radio clubs will be holding hamfests now that
the weather is good for outdoor events.

Google or ARRL or that Shack store will special order thousands of items
that they don't stock.

If a ham, surely other hams should be able to help? One for the actual
price plus postage?

I forgot to mench.. if you could find an electronics dealer that used to
install C-band satellite dishes, they might still have some, as the Ns were
used in early versions with separate downconverters
