History

The station began operations in 1979 as MRS 101.1, airing an adult contemporary format. In 1998, after NBC was acquired by PLDT subsidiary MediaQuest Holdings, the station rebranded as Tony @ Rhythms 101.1 and switched to an oldies format, ranging from the 50s and 60s. It went off the air in 2002.
