01History
In February 2020, the City Government launched an emergency-centric community station under the identity of "Davao City Disaster Radio". Prior to the launch, the city government announced its intention to establish a community station with a purpose of disseminating vital information on disasters and emergency preparedness.
The station was officially launched on February 3, 2020 with a guest presence from Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte. At that time, it was located in RJ Homes Bldg.
On the second quarter of 2021, the station transferred to the City Hall Annex Building.
On April 6, 2026 until further notice, due to the impact of the increase in oil prices which has affected the operational costs, the station reduced its daily operations from round-the-clock to temporary broadcast hours from 5:00 am to 12:00 midnight.
