The computer room of the Metro Nashville (Tenn.) comm center. The far left cabinet contains the Plant Equipment Inc. PYXIS digital logging recorder, while the tall grey cabinet to its right contains the Dictaphone digital logging recorder. The Dictaphone system will eventually be moved to a back-up comm center.

The two video screens control the two recorders. Behind the computer gear is a throw-back to older times--a old wooden library card cabinet. It was salvaged from a county library and now stores five years of DAT logging recorder tapes--the drawers are just the right size!
