I just don't log dives
I recently purchased a Nautilus Lifeline radio with it's carrying case. The case has a sleeve in the back, like what you would put a belt through. I have an Aqua Lung Zuma BCD. There are not a lot of attachment points. I also have a dive knife attached to the BCD, so that point of contact is taken. I appreciate your thoughts on the matter.
 
I carried a Nautilus Lifeline for 23 dives in Komodo. I just used the clip on the case to attach it to a D-ring along the waist belt of my BC. I had no trouble with it falling off. We did backrolls off a tender (small boat). I don't know if a giant stride off a larger boat would cause issues.
 
Zip tie it to your BCD in a spot that makes sense to you. I zip tie mine to my right shoulder strap. It shifts on me a little but I haven't figured out a better spot and it doesn't bother me enough to worry about it.
 
I have attached it to my BCD via a split ring and bolt snap with problems. More recently I have clipped it in the pocket of my Apeks Tech shorts with a fishing lanyard.

I have the same bcd. I have strapped to a sholders strap with zip ties in the past, but my rescue diver instructor didn't this that was a great location. I have been zip tying it to the back of the weight pocket sleeve, but I feel that not a stable area. I have been thinking of getting a weight belt and wearing it just with the Lifeline attached. I have also thought about threading it onto my belly snaps and then using a second lanyard to attach to a D ring.
