[Paddlewise] VHF attached to vest

Ralph suggested buying a radio case and attaching it to the PFD shoulder 
strap by a short webbing strap.

I skip the case and just use a strap made for joggers to attach the radio 
directly to the PFD.  It is 2" orange elastic with a retro-reflective band 
around it.  I wrap the radio strap  around the adjustment strap of the vest 
just in case it comes out of the band.  No case necessary (assuming you have 
a submersible radio).

PS Why is it retro-reflective vice just reflective?  Isn't retro-reflective 
redundant?
