DWNX (91.1 FM) RMN Naga is a radio station owned and operated by the Radio Mindanao Network. The station's studio and transmitter are located at the RMN Broadcast Center, Maharlika Highway, Brgy. Del Rosario, Milaor.[1][2][3][4]

History

DWNX was inaugurated on February 14, 1992, airing a CHR/Top 40 format. On August 16, 1992, the station was rebranded as Smile Radio, with a mass-based format. On June 1, 1996, it was relaunched with an AM on FM format, this time using the RMN branding. In 2017, DWNX opened a relay station on 1611 AM to serve areas outside Bicol region. There were plans for DWNX to transfer its broadcast to AM and launch iFM on its current frequency. However, due to consistent success of the station, the plan was shelved. On May 25, 2022, DWNX changed its new frequency to 1296 AM, from the former 1611 AM.
