DWET (106.7 FM), on-air as 106.7 Energy FM, is a radio station owned by Interactive Broadcast Media and operated under an airtime lease agreement by Ultrasonic Broadcasting System. Its studios and offices are located at Unit A, 3rd Floor, E-Square Bldg., 416 Ortigas Ave., Brgy. Greenhills, San Juan, Metro Manila, while its transmitter is located along Quirino Highway, Brgy. San Bartolome, Novaliches, Quezon City.
The station, along with ABC 5, first went on-air on February 21, 1992 as Kool 106. With radio veteran George Mercado (George Boone) at the helm, its aired a Hot AC format, playing a mix of Top 40 hits and music from the 70s and 80s. In 1995, when Marc Gorospe (currently program manager of DWAD 1098) assumed the Station Manager post, Kool 106 flipped into contemporary hit radio.
On March 15, 1999, it became 106.7 Kool and switched to an urban contemporary format. Kool signed off for the last time under its format on August 3, 2001.
In September 1, 2001, It rebranded as Ritmo Latino Rio 106.7, the first radio station in the country that played Latin music.
In April 1, 2002, Kool 106 resurrected as a mass-based station. During the relaunch, Kool 106 and ABC-5 teamed up to produce a 30-minute interactive music show called "Kool on Kam", originally aired as a hookup with Kool 106 where the jocks can now be seen on TV with music videos playing. On June 3, 2002, Kool on Kam moved to a primetime slot and its airtime was extended to a full hour. Aside from the show having its own segments, the jocks also interview the show's featured artist of the week. Kool on Kam lasted for a year and a half. The station also had its first ever separate countdown, where the top 10 OPM songs and top 10 foreign songs are aired at noontime and 6:00 pm respectively on Sundays. Kool 106 also had its "By Request" program, which aired weekdays from 9:00 pm to midnight, and all day Sundays where listeners can call and ask for their requested song. They made their final broadcast on July 31, 2004, where they bade farewell and gave thanks to their listeners for the past 12 years under the "Kool" branding.
On August 1, 2004, as part of its transition, the station began stunting by playing a mix of classic hits, smooth jazz and orchestra under the interim name ABC Radio.
On September 27, 2004, 11 months after Tonyboy Cojuangco took over the management of ABC, the station was relaunched as 106.7 Dream FM. It aired a smooth jazz format, playing smooth jazz, R&B, Soul, Bossa Nova and House and carried the slogan Your Comfortable Choice. It was also home of Smooth Jazz Top 20 hosted by Allen Kepler and Turbo Time.
After PLDT's media subsidiary MediaQuest Holdings, Inc. acquired TV5 and its affiliate ABC television stations from the consortium led by the Cojuangco group and Malaysian media conglomerate Media Prima Berhad in March 2010, Dream FM and its regional stations were spun off to become Dream FM Network, led by former ABC stockholder Anton Lagdameo. The ownership of the stations were transferred to Interactive Broadcast Media, after Cojuangco acquired a non-controlling share of the company. The station continued to use TV5's Novaliches studios throughout the rest of Dream FM's run.
