History

DZMC first went on air sometime in 1998 after Acacia Broadcasting Corporation bought the frequency from Nation Broadcasting Corporation.[4] At that time, it had the widest audience share in the province and was known for playing songs against the then-president Joseph Estrada.[5] In 2002, Southern Broadcasting Network leased the station & became part of Mom's Radio with an AC & Talk format. On August 2008, TNC Promotions & Advertising leased the station & rebranded it back to DZMC with a Classic Hits & Talk format. On December 2018, Sagay Broadcasting Corporation leased the station and moved Muews Radio from 107.9. However, on June 2019, their contract was terminated and Muews Radio moved back to its original frequency, leaving 91.1 off the air.
