DZRB-AM
DZRB (738 AM), on-air as Radyo Pilipinas - Radyo Publiko, is a radio station owned and operated by the Presidential Broadcast Service, an attached agency under the Presidential Communications Office. It serves as the flagship station of the Radyo Pilipinas network. The station's studios are located at the 4/F, PIA/Media Center Building, Visayas Ave., Brgy. Vasra, Diliman, Quezon City, and its transmitter is located at Brgy. Marulas, Valenzuela City. The station operates daily from 4:00 AM to 12 midnight.
Established on May 8, 1933, DZRB is the first radio station in the Philippines before the launch of DZRH.
On May 8, 1933, the Insular Government under the United States of America established and operated radio station KZSO in the Philippines, with a frequency of 710 kilohertz and power of 10,000 watts through the United States Information Service. In 1944, the callsign was change to KZFM, named after Frederick Marquardt.
In September 1946, two months after the Philippines gained independence from the United States, KZFM was turned over to the nascent Philippine government, and the Philippine Broadcasting Service was born.
The station was first operated by the Department of Foreign Affairs until it was transferred to the Radio Broadcasting Board (RBB) created by President Manuel Quezon on September 3, 1937. In the same year, an international telecommunications conference in Atlantic City, New Jersey, assigned the letter "D" to replace "K" as the initial call letter for all radio stations in the Philippines. In January 1942, the RBB was abolished to give way to the establishment of the Philippine Information Council (PIC) which then assumed the function of the RBB, including the operation of DZFM. In turn, the PIC was abolished on July 1, 1952, and since then, until the creation of the Department of Public Information (DPI) in 1959, DZFM and the Philippine Broadcasting Service (PBS) had been operated under the Office of the President.
During Martial Law, the Bureau of Broadcasts took over the station and became DPI Radio 1 / MPI Radio 1. In November 1978, due to the switch of the Philippine AM dial from the NARBA-mandated 10 kHz spacing to the 9 kHz rule implemented by the Geneva Frequency Plan of 1975, the station's frequency was transferred from 710 kHz to 918 kHz.
In 1986 (after the EDSA Revolution), DZFM returned to its ownership by the establishment of the Bureau of Broadcast Services via the reinstated PBS.
The station would later be reformatted as Sports Radio (the predecessor of Radyo Pilipinas 2).
