History
It was once DZUW-AM, originally broadcasting on 1310 kHz on the AM band and it was originally owned by Republic Broadcasting System (now GMA Network, Inc.), but was moved to the FM band in 1973 on 100.3 MHz.
In 1980, it was reformatted as 100.3 Wink FM and it changed its callsign to DWNK-FM. It was manned by all-female DJs, decades before 101.9 Radio Romance (now MOR 101.9 For Life!) came to existence.
Around 1986, during the Philippines' historic People Power Revolution, after DZRJ-AM reformatted as Radyo Bandido with a news, talk & public service format, it was sold to Rajah Broadcasting Network and changed its callsign to DZRJ. It rebranded as RJFM 100.3 The Original Rock and Roll Radio with an album rock format, which was similar to the former format where DZRJ-AM essentially left off. By the early 90s, it carried the brand Boss Radio as its format evolved into mainstream rock. In 1998, it officially launched its nationwide satellite broadcasting, a first in the history of the company to achieve this milestone.
Around July 1999, it was reformatted again as The Hive 100.3, playing alternative rock, indie rock & classic rock music. Its format was similar to RJ Underground Radio 105.9 (now 105.9 Like FM). On May 6, 2002, it was reformatted again as 100.3 RJFM, this time playing the music from almost 6 decades. It started as an fully automated music station until May 2003, when they finally have on-air jocks.
RJFM is popular among early morning listeners for the "Beatles Anthology", featuring Beatles music for one whole hour. The show happens daily from 5:00 to 6:00 in the morning, with replays at 8:00 in the evening.
