DWRX, currently branded as Monster Radio RX 93.1, is a music FM radio station owned by Audiovisual Communicators Inc. in the Philippines. The station’s studio is located at the 17th floor of Strata 2000 Bldg., Emerald Avenue, Ortigas Center., Pasig City. Before its current brand, it was known as RX93 from 1983 – 1995.
History
The station debuted on August 23, 1983, 2 days after the assassination of Ninoy Aquino. However, the station had been operating under different call letters (meaning that there’s the same frequency since the mid-70s), and inherited the call letters “RX” from the station’s former owners, describing “perscription music”. On that same year, the station adopted the pop format as Music City RX93 and became #1 on the survey in the mid-80s.
In 1987, the station transferred from its studio and offices in Makati to its current location in Ortigas and it was reformatted as Light Rock RX93, with its light rock format.
In October 1990, the station reverted back to its pop format as Monster Radio RX93. A few years later, it became “The First Creative Pop Station” by adding the dot (.) and 1 at 93, so it became Monster Radio RX 93.1 with its current slogan, “Manila’s Hottest”.
