History

DWNX was inaugurated on February 14, 1992 with the slogan Naga's FM station. It carried a 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. At that time, the station's reformat was initially criticized by some listeners due to its radical change of format. It eventually went on to become the number 1 radio station in that format in Bicol. In late 2016, DWNX opened an AM station on 1611 kHz 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's AM counterpart moved to 1296 kHz.
