History

The station was launched in 1987 as Radyo Maynila under the helm of former actor and BBS-PBS interim director Jose Mari Gonzales. Gonzales ordered that all BBS radio station will give their respective identities including Radyo ng Bayan, Sports Radio and DZRP-Radyo Pagasa.
In the late-1990s/early 2000s, the station was reformatted as a cultural-oriented station under the name Radyo Magasin.
Between 2007 and 2009, DZRM aired the Spanish cultural magazine show, Filipinas, Ahora Mismo.
On September 17, 2017, Radyo Magasin finally went dark for the last time, after almost 20 years of broadcasting. Its programming merged with DZSR's programming on Radyo Pilipinas Dos, which was launched the next day. The defunct station's audio streaming space, meanwhile, was then converted to DWFO's audio portal on November 1 after it started a series of tests broadcasts.
