Television viewers got a glimpse inside the Washoe County Regional Emergency Operations Center and the Washoe County Amateur Radio Emergency Service (ARES) radio room during last weeks broadcast of the television news magazine "Plush Life TV".

Filming of this episode began after ARRL Public Information Officer Randall Lorenz AF7HD, of Reno, contacted the show's producer about the possibility of having a segment on ARES activities.
