DXDE (107.1 FM), broadcasting as 107.1 XFM, is a radio station owned by Rizal Memorial Colleges Broadcasting Corporation and operated by Y2H Broadcasting Network. Its studio and transmitter are located at the 2nd floor, AMG Bldg., Villa Magsanoc Subd., National Highway, Brgy. Mankilam, Tagum.[1][2][3]

History

[edit]

The station was established on March 15, 2014, as One Radio under the Radyo ni Juan network. At that time, it was located at Purok Bautista, Brgy. Mankilam. On December 2, 2020, it, along with the other Radyo ni Juan stations, went off the air due to financial problems.

On March 1, 2022, the station went back on air, this time as XFM under the management of Dr. Remelito Uy's Y2H Broadcasting Network. It moved to its present location in Villa Magsanoc Subdivision at the same barangay. It was initially an originating station until October 4, 2022, when it transferred its studios to Davao City. As a result, it was downgraded to a relay station of XFM Davao.

In May 2023, it was relaunched with its own local programming. It still simulcasts a handful of programs from XFM Davao.

On October 14, 2024, it moved its frequency to 107.1 FM for better signal quality.[4] Prior to this, the said frequency was formerly used by Hope Radio until the latter moved to 106.7 FM known as Radyo sa Paglaum (which later moved to 106.8 FM by early November).
