DXTS (94.3 FM), broadcasting as 94.3 DZRH News FM, is a commercial radio station owned by Cebu Broadcasting Company, an affiliate of Manila Broadcasting Company. The station's studio and transmitter are located at the 3rd floor, RD Plaza Bldg., Pendatun Ave., Brgy. Dadiangas West, General Santos City. It is operating 24 hours a day.[1][2]
Despite carrying the DZRH brand, it usually airs its own programming. It is the second FM station of MBC to carry a hybrid of music & news after Ben FM in Northern Cebu.
History
It was formerly known as Hot FM carrying a mass-based format from 1999 to May 2009. In July 2009, it changed its brand to Easy Rock, with a Soft AC format, competing with Home Radio. In February 2014, the station, along with MBC's O&O Hot FM stations, rebranded as Yes FM, reverting to its mass-based format. On May 1, 2017, it was rebranded again as Yes The Best. On September 2019, it was reformatted into a news/talk format, this time using the DZRH brand.
