DWBL (1242 AM) is a radio station owned and operated by FBS Radio Network in the Philippines. The station's studio is located at Unit 908, Paragon Plaza, EDSA corner Reliance Street, Mandaluyong, while its transmitter is located along Coloong 1 Road, Barangay Coloong, Valenzuela City. It broadcasts daily from 4:30 AM to midnight.[1]
History
DWBL was initially known as WBL and carried a Top 40 format during the Martial Law era. At that time, it was the top-rated radio station in Metro Manila. Willy "Hillbilly Willy" Inong, Rudolph Rivera, Bernie Buenaseda, Orlando S. Mercado, Noli de Castro and Mike Enriquez were among the roster of personalities who worked with the station. In mid-1985, when most of the jocks moved to DWKC-FM and formed WKC, Buenaseda remained on air, but left after a few months to set up WTM 89.9. The following year, DWBL reformatted into a talk station, offering brokered programming.[2]
In April 2015, 8TriMedia bought part of DWBL's time for its programs hosted by popular radio personalities, such as Dr. Rey Salinel, former Manila City mayor Alfredo Lim, Miguel Gil, Percy Lapid,[3][4] Shalala and Lloyd Umali. It lasted until October 2015, when it moved its airtime to DZRJ, along with new programs.[5]
