History

DWRL was inaugurated as DZBT in 1980, with studios located in Batangas City. It was transferred in Legazpi City in 1983. On June 12, 1984 DWRL formally went on the air at the PNR Legazpi Terminal. DWRL operated with the power of 1 KW from 1984 until November 2006, when typhoon Reming completely destroyed the building including its equipment. In January 2007, DWRL finally was transferred to a company property in Brgy. Rawis. In April 2007, its new broadcast facilities and studio equipments were finally installed, and on May 7, 2007, DWRL went on air once again. In November 2015, it began simulcasting on FM via 88.3. When 88.3 was relaunched as One FM in 2019, it retained its simulcast, this time during Weekdays, from 6:00am to 10:00am.
