History

The station began operations in 1976 as MRS 101.5, airing an adult contemporary format. In 1998, after NBC was acquired by PLDT subsidiary MediaQuest Holdings, the station rebranded as Sandy @ Rhythms 101.5 and switched to a Top 40 format. In 2005, the "Rhythms" tag was dropped.[https://www.isiswomen.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=719&Itemid=346 Youth Rave: 'talk to us about our rights but let us have our say, too'][http://www.cdodev.com/2018/03/25/sgt-stan-boodle-camp-just-what-the-sgt-ordered/ Sgt. Stan Boodle Camp – just what the Sgt. ordered]

In 2011, months after TV5 took over operations of the stations, it became a relay station of DWFM 92.3 Manila, which was branded as Radyo5 and specifically the News FM sub-brand, later transitioning to True FM in 2023. On November 4, 2024, it transitioned to become a relay station of DWLA 105.9 Manila, where the flagship True FM programming transferred, as part of the rebranded True Network. It is one of the two radio stations owned by TV5's sister company Nation Broadcasting Corporation (NBC) despite its lease-to-own agreement with Philippine Collective Media Corporation (PCMC) regarding most NBC-owned radio stations, with the other being based in Cebu.{{cite news|url=https://bilyonaryo.com/2024/10/27/from-dzmm-to-radyo5-dwfm-prime-media-scoops-up-radio-assets-of-mvp-group/business/|title=From DZMM to Radyo5-DWFM: Prime Media scoops up radio assets of MVP Group|work=Bilyonaryo|date=October 27, 2024|access-date=October 27, 2024}}{{cite news|url=https://www.bworldonline.com/corporate/2024/10/29/631169/nbc-pcmc-in-radio-asset-transfer-talks/|title=NBC, PCMC in radio asset transfer talks|publisher=BusinessWorld|date=October 29, 2024|accessdate=October 29, 2024}}{{cite news|url= https://bilyonaryo.com/2024/10/28/lipat-bahay-mvp-moves-radyo5-true-fm-to-another-station-as-pcmc-takes-over-92-3-frequency/business/|title=Lipat bahay: MVP moves Radyo5-True FM to another station as PCMC takes over 92.3 frequency|work=Bilyonaryo|date=October 28, 2024}}
