DZRB (95.9 FM) was a radio station owned and operated by Nation Broadcasting Corporation.[1][2]
History
[edit]The station began operations in 1985 as MRS 95.9, airing an adult contemporary format. In 1998, after NBC was acquired by PLDT subsidiary MediaQuest Holdings, the station rebranded as Nikki @ Rhythms 95.9 and switched to a Top 40 format. In 2002, Earthsounds Broadcasting System took over the station's operations and rebranded it as 95.9 Crosswave, carrying a smooth jazz format. In 2006, Southern Broadcasting Network took over the station's operations and rebranded it as Mom's Radio 95.9.[3] In 2009, Audiowav Media took over the station's operations, along with NBC's stations in Visayas and Mindanao, and relaunched it as WAV FM, carrying a Top 40 format.[4] In December 1 2011, it became a relay station of Radyo5 News FM Manila. It went off the air sometime in late 2012 due to cost cutting measures.
