NU 107.5 DWNU Manila Live

DWNU, broadcasting as 107.5 Win Radio, is the music FM radio station of Progressive Broadcasting Corporation in the Philippines. The station's studio is located at the ground floor AIC Gold Tower, F. Ortigas Jr. Rd., Ortigas Center, Pasig City and its transmitter is located at Crestview Heights Subdivision, Brgy. San Roque, Antipolo City shared by its sister station UNTV-37.

History

The station debuted on November 9, 2010 as 107.5 Win Radio after NU 107 signed off for the last time a day earlier. It is managed by Manny Luzon who became the EVP and COO on October 10, 2010.

Luzon originally coined the name "Love Radio" for DZMB in the 80s. Since 2002, it retained its #1 spot among Metro Manila stations. Eventually, he formed UBSI in 1991, created and popularized Energy FM in key provinces beginning in 1996. In 2003, Energy took over DWKY in Manila, immediately becoming a household sensation and in 2008 reaching as far as #2 among Metro Manila stations.

Just four months after its debut, it landed at #7 according to the March 2011 KBP Radio Research Council survey.

Profile

Reformatted as a "more decent mainstream frequency", Win Radio's airplay is heavily OPM, both current and revival songs. The station distinguishes itself from its competitors through "responsible programming" without playing songs "with double meaning" as is the structure for the masa market.[1][2]

Some listeners claim the network is only a mere 'copycat' of 90.7 Love Radio in terms of its slogan and its station IDs (Win Radio's slogan Pinag-iisipan pa ba yan? was more of a synonym to Love Radio's slogan Kailangan pa bang i-memorize yan?). The DJs are comprised of mostly old voices officially resigned from their previous stations.

Along with 91.5 Big Radio & former Luzon owned 106.7 Energy FM, they were also made to answer the more popular MBC's pair of sister stations of similar format: 90.7 Love Radio and 101.1 Yes! FM.
