Arrow> Can that lanyard fit over your head? That's how I have mine with a barely big enough loop, I've had clips twist off and with the loop tucked under my mask strap keeps my radio out of the water for receiving signal. I can get tired holding stuff above the waterline for signal especially when holding the smb. Been there>done that>learned the lesson.

Yes that loop is big enough to make it like a necklace. I just scoot all of the black mini D-rings back towards the PLB1 case.

That tiny orange plastic cylinder is a tool to wind Nautilus Lifeline nexGen (NLn) antenna back into its lid. I get tired of looking for it in my tool kit after testing my NLn before taking it for diving. It’s small enough to just attach it to the leash.

You just gave me a good idea on how to keep my PLB1 or NLn above water without holding the device. I just sandwich the device between the back of my head and my mask strap and adjust the mask strap tension just enough to hold it & the mask on my forehead.
 
My PLB1 came with a clip for mounting it on BCD shoulder strap. I lost the clip somewhere. I may need to order replacement clip from Ocean Signal.
