Does anyone know how the [PKE meter](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/mattel-pke-meter) is attached to the belt? I don’t remember ever seeing it in the movies. I don’t know if there is a custom pouch like with the circut board or what. I was planning on using one of those detachable cell phone belt clips if there isn’t a better way. just wondering.

The Pke is a prop that you never see until it magically appears in Egons hand. I have a walky talky clip on the bottom of mine just be creative.

I don’t know about the placement in the movies, but in [The Real Ghostbusters](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/games/the-real-ghostbusters-activison) the [PKE meter](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/mattel-pke-meter) is held on the betl, on right hip and hanging antenna down, attached from the handle. Well, at least in one episode. There is a length of cord attached to the handle and to the belt. It seemed to be at least one meter long. I don’t remember the episode, I found it from youtube. A good guess regarding the movie PKE, I’d say that the PKE is hung on the belt, hanging from the handle down. I would be easy to use that way. Will it stay in place in case of emergency, I’ve no idea..

Well, my two cents here.. Ville

I think yeah Mrs Rogers Neighborhood it’s attached to a cord, other times Egon magically pulls that huge thing out of his breast pocket…cartoons 😃

I think a lot of people here have just had it in their pocket, though no one sees it, it’s safe until you wanna whip it out. 😃 okay that sounded wrong. :sigh:

I was walking through LOWES and I remembered this post.

They have a ‘universal holder’ for the belt.

It’s pretty nice looking. I would suggest you to give it a look if you haven’t already found an answer.
