The ham shop in the East Village is Barry Electronics. I've bought ham
antennas from them, but I don't know if they'd have anything specifically
for 1.2/2.4GHz. See:

You could try a pro video place -- such as AMV
(http://www.allmobilevideo.com/sales/index.htm), but they're going to be
VERY expensive, and they'd probably have to order a part like that anyway.
Sadly, you're really better off ordering online, unless you absolutely
must have it today... in which case, plan on driving outside the city.
What we need in NYC is a Fry's. The stores are huge and carry insane
inventory of all sorts of parts (from pc parts, test equipment, ham gear,
books, music/videos, washing machines, twice the size of any best buy I've
seen). Who knows... we finally got a Trader Joe's. Anything can happen!

I think Abe's might be able to help you out. I think that's the name of
the store. Anyway, there is a Ham Radio store in the East Village who
should be able to help you out or atleast point you to someone who can.
