I bought some standard ones from the US distributor but can't find their 
name.

The complete catalog, in Japanese, is at  
http://us.100y.com.tw/pdf_file/10-NCS.pdf; it shows an angle version 
NCS-256-LP

For my Yaesu the connector is NCS-256-P, and I think I paid about $12 ea 
a few years ago.

you will get lots of hits if google NCS-256-P, somewhere in that pile 
might be the US distributor.
